Essentially, this would save a ton of time if you want all of your given photos from a shoot to have the same look, or you have a particular aesthetic you aim for in your photography. Copy/pasting edits will make lining up changes seamless, instead of you having to remember what you did with previous edits. We spotted this addition in iOS 16 courtesy of MacRumors (opens in new tab). To do start copy/pasting changes to your pictures, simply edit your first photo at will. When you’re done and have confirmed your edits, tap the horizontal three dots in the top right corner. In the list that appears, you’ll see an option near the bottom third that says Copy Edits. Then, go to the next photo you want to edit, tap the same three dots as before, except this time, you’re looking for Paste Edits in nearly the same spot where you saw Copy Edits before. It’s a very simple change, but copying-and-pasting photo edits previously required a third-party app to do. So we’re happy to see Apple add it natively in the Photos app. On top of the major changes to the lock screen and Messages, we’re still discovering new iOS 16 features as Apple reveals more at WWDC, such as Face ID working in landscape mode. We’ll also be diving into the developer beta soon as well as the public beta for iOS 16 once that arrives in July. We expect iOS 16 to launch alongside the iPhone 14 this fall. We believe that Apple may have some iPhone 14 Pro-specific iOS 16 features to show off then, too, such as an always-on display. FYI: iOS 16 makes transferring an eSim stupidly easy.
