It seems that some users are discovering the wonderful world of developing and processing photos, especially now that the latest versions of iOS allow numerous adjustments to be applied directly from the Photos gallery. Well, on TikTok, many users are sharing some basic steps to turn your photos into spectacular shots.
The “hack” to edit photos on iPhone
Many TikTok publications are sharing this new trend called editing hack, which in the end is nothing more than a demonstration of how applying specific adjustments to your photos can achieve quite spectacular results.
Perhaps, the term hack does not fit too much, since here we are not taking advantage of any security flaw or bypassing any protection system. We are simply editing a photo from the photo editor built into iOS, so don’t expect to get anything especially “illegal”. Not for that reason, the results are bad, and that is why the trick has been so successful among the user community.
Who invented it?
The fact of adjusting preferences such as exposure, contrast, saturation and other of the many values that we can find in the Photos editing tool on iOS is not a discovery to rave about, however, TikTok user anaugazz, wanted to share with the world a list of presets that turn all of their photos into truly hit posts on TikTok.

Such is the success of these adjustments, that the publication with which he shared the steps to follow to obtain the final result of the process does not stop adding views, to the point of reaching a total of more than 12 and a half million reproductions, becoming in viran in a matter of hours. But it works?
How to improve photos for TikTok
According to the steps shared by its creator, these are the settings that you must apply from the iOS Photos application, which you must modify following the order in which we leave them below:
- Raise the Exposure to 100
- Raise the Brightness to 100
- Lower the Clear Zones to -35
- Lower Shadows to -28
- Lower the Contrast to -30
- Lower the Brightness to -15
- Raise the Black Point to 10
- Raise the Saturation to 10
- Raise the Vivacity to 8
- Raise the Temperature to 10
- Increase Tint to 29
- Raise the Sharpness to 14
- Increase Gradient to 23
- Lower the Exposure to 0
- Lowers B Rillo 0
The results should show images that are more contrasting and with more intense colors, allowing you to see in areas where there was previously too much exposure and highlighting darker areas. In some cases, the result may be somewhat artificial, but in general, very striking results are obtained, which is after all what we are looking for on social networks.

Does it work on Android?
You will probably get very similar results with applications like Snapseed, however, one of the advantages that the iPhone has in this regard is that its camera performs very well in most conditions, so it will be able to obtain more information in extreme editions. as it happens this time.
