Cropping & borders tip

iPhone photos are usually 4:3 or taller, which doesn't always match print sizes perfectly. If the preview shows cropping you don't like, choose Smart Borders or add a white border. This keeps your full photo visible and avoids surprises.

Mini FAQ

Are iPhone photos good enough to print?

Yes. Modern iPhones capture high-resolution photos that print beautifully at most sizes. For larger prints (11x14+), check your file's pixel dimensions to make sure it's sharp enough.

Do iPhone photos get cropped when printed?

Sometimes. If your photo's shape doesn't match the print size, borderless printing may crop the edges. Smart Borders or a white border can help.

Can I print Live Photos?

Live Photos print as a still image. The movement won't show, but the main frame will look great.

Can I print screenshots from my iPhone?

You can, but screenshots are usually lower resolution than camera photos. They may look soft at larger print sizes.

How do I find my photo's resolution?

Open the photo in the Photos app, swipe up or tap the "i" icon to see details including dimensions.
