Hi everyone, just a quick (may sound stupid) question about pictures in the default Photo App.

I took a picture earlier today of my cat, but i want to zoom in a bit on the photo i took, but the thing is, if i just pinch and zoom it holds the zoom, but doesn't allow me to save the picture 'zoomed' in.

If the default photo app doesn't let you zoom in on already taken photo's, then what app lets you?

Please note, that i already have a couple of apps such as; 'Hipstamatic', 'PictureShow', 'TiltShiftGen', and 'CrossProcess', but i couldn't find an option in any of those apps!

Any suggestions? Cheers for any input :L
 
I'm pretty sure you tap on the camera screen and you get a zoom bar option.

Yh but that's during taking a photo, i've already taken a photo, and i want to save a zoomed in version of the photo i just took.
 
Zoom in on your photo and then press the Sleep button and the home button at the same time. It takes a screenshot. There may be more elegant solutions but it works.

Nice idea, but it wouldn't save it at its original size. It would only save it at the iPhone 4's screen size (640x960 or sumtin').

Good point. It looks like you need an app that crops. Try Photoshop Express app. It's free and should do everything you need.
 
No problem! I hope it helps!😀

Cheers man! Photoshop Express was just what i wanted!!! I really should of thought of that seeing as i have Photoshop CS5 on my Mac. I just wanted to edit on the move, when im on the tube/train.

Cheers again, 🙂
 
Photogene will also do it for you. You crop your photo and it saves the cropped photo as well as the original.
