## What is Handoff?

Show them the shot you want.

For partners, friends, and whoever gets handed your phone. Handoff helps someone else take the photo you have in mind.

Choose your zoom, compose the photo, lock a reference, and pass your iPhone to the photographer. Step into the scene while they match your framing visually.

KEEP YOUR REFERENCE IN VIEW
A small thumbnail shows your original photo. Tap it for a closer look, or turn on Ghost to place an adjustable transparent reference over the live camera. Line up the background while choosing your own pose.

FRAME AND CAPTURE
Choose the front or rear camera. Tap zoom presets, drag the zoom dial, or pinch before locking. Flash options depend on the selected camera. Shoot in portrait or landscape. Tap the manual shutter when everyone is ready. Handoff requests quality-prioritized still photos. Full preserves the returned file without an added crop or recompression. Optional 9:16, 4:5, 1:1 and 16:9 formats crop the preview and saved photo. Cropped photos are re-encoded without original HDR attachments.

COMPARE AND KEEP
Compare the photo with your reference, retake it, save it to Photos, or share it. Local drafts remain available if saving to Photos fails.

REUSE YOUR REFERENCES
Open references from History to use their thumbnail and ghost overlay again. Match the framing by eye and take the photo when it looks right.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account, advertising, purchases, or app-operated cloud service. References and drafts stay on your iPhone. Photos access is requested when you choose to save. Optional diagnostics stay local unless you export them.

Requires an iPhone running iOS 17 or later. Camera resolution, lens availability, and processing vary by device and zoom. Handoff does not reproduce every feature of Apple's Camera app. Matching is visual: there are no position measurements, match scores, or automatic captures.
