Smoother collages, plus a tunnel of stars. • New Star Tunnel effect: stars swirl around the person in your photo, who always stays in front. Change the star shape, color, rings and speed, tap Multicolor for a new color mix, and export as a Live Photo. • A redesigned collage editor: a bigger canvas, and the tools you need right next to the photo, text or sticker you select. • Add things faster: tap a recent photo to drop it in, and drag text or shapes right where you want them. • Double-tap a photo to reframe it, or double-tap text to edit it on the canvas. • Long-press to select several items, then align, distribute, group or duplicate them together. Drag layers to reorder them, and show or hide each one.
