Use Photographic Styles with your iPhone camera

On supported models, Photographic Styles intelligently adjust specific colors in different parts of your photos to create a customized look. The style you select applies automatically to all photos you take, but you can make adjustments in Camera or edits later in the Photos app.

Note: On models that support latest generation Photographic Styles, Camera needs to capture photos with High Efficiency image capture to edit Photographic Styles later in Photos. To turn on High Efficiency, go to Settings 👁 Image
> Camera > Formats, then tap High Efficiency.
