How to Copy and Paste Photo Edits on iPhone and iPad
We’ve already covered the steps needed to take if you want to remove the background from pictures on your iPhone. However, did you know that iOS and iPadOS 16 also introduce the ability to copy and paste photo edits on iPhone and iPad? This is absolutely fantastic for those who want to make sure that their images are styled in a consistent manner, before sharing them with the rest of the world. Here’s how to copy and past photo edits on iPhone and iPad:
- Open the Photos app on your iPhone or iPad.
- Locate and open the first image that you want to edit.
- In the top right corner, tap the Edit button.
- Go through and make any of the edits to the image that you need to make. This includes the following options:
- Auto
- Exposure
- Brilliance
- Highlights
- Shadows
- Contrast
- Brightness
- Black Point
- Saturation
- Vibrance
- Warmth
- Tint
- Sharpness
- Definition
- Noise Reduction
- Vignette
- Once the edits have been made, tap the three horizontal dots in a circle in the top right corner.
- From the menu that appears, tap Copy Edits.
- Tap the Done button in the bottom right corner.
- Locate and select the image that you also want to edit.
- Tap the three horizontal dots in a circle in the top right corner.
- From the menu that appears, tap Paste Edits.
- Once the edits have been applied, tap the Done button in the bottom right corner.
- Repeat the process for any additional images that you wish to edit.
After just a moment, you’ll see your old image spring to life with all of the edits that you previously made. But what if you want to make edits to multiple photos at the same time? Well, it’s definitely possible, and here’s how:
- Follow the steps above to edit the first image and copy those edits.
- Go back to the main Photos app.
- Locate the images that you wish to paste photo edits onto.
- In the top right corner, tap Select.
- Select the images that you want to edit.
- Once selected, tap the three horizontal dots in a circle in the bottom right corner.
- From the menu that appears, tap Paste Edits.
- Wait until the progress dialog box disappears.
That’s it! All of the images that you selected will have the same editing adjustments applied as the ones that you made when editing the first image. You can repeat the process for other images, or you can just batch edit a bunch of images at the same time, ensuring that they all follow the same aesthetic that you’re looking for.
