Photography

Apple’s recent take on revolutionizing photos is magical, but there is one glaring issue for most people. As neat as Live Photos are, the format is still unsupported in many places. Say you wanted to send a Live Photo to your friend who uses something besides an iPhone. You would be out of luck.

This article covers how you can convert your Live Photos to the popular GIF format along with other popular formats so you can share them practically anywhere.

The iPhone has revolutionized many aspects of our mobile lives, but maybe none more than photography. Apple loves to let the public know that more photos are taken on iPhones than any other device in the world. That said, it only makes sense that the iPhone would be one of the best places to edit photos as well.

Some technology analysts have dubbed 2016 the year of virtual reality. Major companies like Oculus and Sony are primed to release their first consumer focus VR products in the coming months, but the entry level pricing will be steep.

However, developments in both VR and 3D technology have also resulted in a few immersive iPhone apps which allow you to capture 360 degree photos and videos. If you already have and iPhone, checking out these apps is the best way to get exposure to virtual reality without spending a dime.

Convenience can be a good reason for a long search history. Instagram is no stranger to this concept, saving a list of recent searches on the iPhone for quick access. Saved information can include tags, Instagram users or any search term that's entered into the search field. While it may not often be necessary, it's good to know that the search history can easily be deleted.

Manual camera apps have increased in popularity recently, but there are few that stand out from the crowd. The most crucial things to consider when deciding between manual camera apps are simplicity and user experience. Obviously, features are important but if you have to spend too much time fiddling with an app you may miss that perfect moment.
