The Magnifier App On iPhone
The iPhone’s Magnifier app turns your iPhone or iPad into a magnifying glass. This lets you zoom in on nearby objects or text. By utilizing your iPhone’s built-in camera, Magnifier enlarges the objects or text, enhancing visibility for your convenience.
How To Turn On Magnifier App
Enabling Magnifier is a simple process. Follow these steps:
Step 1: Go to Settings > General > Accessibility.
Step 2: Tap on “Accessibility.”
Step 3: Choose “Magnifier.”
Step 4: Activate the switch next to Magnifier.
Step 5: To enable automatic adjustment of brightness and contrast based on ambient light, toggle the switch next to Auto-Brightness.
How To Use Magnifier App
After enabling Magnifier, tap the button on the right side of your iPhone three times to activate it. For older iPhone models, press the home button to turn on the magnifier.
The Magnifier feature functions similarly to the iPhone’s camera app. Point it at the text or object you wish to magnify and take a picture. Adjust the magnification level by dragging the slider or lock the focus by tapping the lock button. In Magnifier, you can apply filters, activate the flashlight, freeze-frame the image, and zoom in or out using the available options.
