You just recorded a video of a memorable moment using your iPhone, but belatedly realize that it's in portrait mode rather than landscape. No worries. You can easily correct this digital faux pas right on your iPhone or iPad.
With Apple's Photos or iMovie apps for iOS, there are built-in ways to fix rotation issues. We show you how it's done in iOS 15.
This is the quickest and easiest way to rotate videos and photos. Every iPhone includes the Photos app.
The Photos app has numerous tools that let you rotate video using a slider, add a horizontal or vertical tilt, or flip video horizontally.
Step 1: Open the Photos app, and tap on the video you wish to rotate.
Step 2: Tap Edit in the top-right corner.
Step 3: Tap the Crop and straighten tool icon on the toolbar at the bottom.
Step 4: Tap the Rotate tool located in the top-left corner — it resembles a box with a curved arrow. Tap the tool until the video rotates to the proper orientation.
Step 5: Tap Done to save your changes.
This is a longer process for fixing video orientation. It’s the next-best method besides Photos and may come in handy if you want to do additional editing.
Step 1: Launch iMovie for iOS from your App Library.
Step 2: Tap Start new project > Movie.
Step 4: With your original movie at the top of the screen and in the timeline, tap the Plus sign (+) on the left, under the movie preview.
Step 5: A video pane appears with your selected movie already highlighted.
Step 6: Tap to see a series of icons underneath the filmstrip and then tap the Plus sign (+) at the left.
Step 7: Use your thumb and forefinger on the movie preview up top for a rotate gesture. You will see an arrow onscreen indicating the direction of the rotation.
Step 8: Tap Done at the upper left.
Affinity’s new all-in-one creative app is finally coming to the iPad, nearly a year after Canva launched the redesigned desktop version for Mac and Windows. Creatives have been asking for the iPad release ever since, especially because files created in the new Affinity app cannot be opened in the older V2 iPad apps.
Affinity already has Photo, Designer, and Publisher apps on iPad, but the new release combines those tools into the same unified app that Canva launched on desktop last year.
Touchscreen laptops have been around for years. You can get them in all sizes and shapes. Just not from Apple. For years, the Cupertino giant has treated the idea of a touchscreen MacBook the way I treat a meeting that could have been an email: with open contempt. However, Wednesday looks like the day the company could finally change its mind.
The latest Apple invite puts the “Pro and Tell” showcase in Los Angeles at 10 a.m. PT (1 p.m. ET) on October 28, 2026. Instead of a regular live-streamed keynote, it is an invitation-only, hands-on event for a handful of press and creators (similar to what the company did for the MacBook Neo earlier this year).
Apple has just launched its latest iPad mini with a notable set of upgrades, including an OLED screen, improved speakers, and a more resilient build. It also gets a new chip, and the whole package costs $200 more than its predecessor. But if you look closely at Apple’s online store, you’ll realize that $699 isn’t enough to get you the most powerful version of the A20 Pro chip inside this tablet. In fact, even if you pay $800 for the 256GB model, you still won’t get the beefiest variant. Only when you jump to the 512GB trim, which costs an absurd $999, do you get the most powerful flavor of the A20 Pro.
The $999 model gets more than extra storage
