Apple announced in Worldwide Developers Conference 2026 on Monday that its Photos app will be getting some new AI features Take advantage of Apple’s intelligence.
A new spatial “reframe” feature will allow users to use artificial intelligence to reframe images. For example, if a user accidentally snaps a mark over someone’s head, or if an image is more symmetrical by moving slightly to the right, or if eye contact with a subject is lost by a split second, the new reframe tool can help fix all of these issues.
Users can touch and drag images to adjust perspective as if they had repositioned the camera in the original scene. Users can also preview the effect in real time. As you edit the image, blur will appear around the edges of the original image, which will later be filled in by Apple’s generative models.
The feature only creates new content to fill in gaps where perspective has been affected to ensure the reframed image remains consistent with the original scene.
The Stretch tool expands images to give people more room to breathe, or to flatten a crooked horizon without cropping out anything important. Users can pinch to zoom out or adjust the crop to add more to the scene.
The app’s popular ‘clean’ tool is also getting an upgrade so users can remove distractions with better quality and more realistic fill using generative AI. This feature allows users to click, brush, or circle what they want to remove.
