The photos app not displaying the full image recently

Copper Contributor

Only a small portion of the image is showing up on the screen within the Photos app. How to fix this? Any ideas or help will be greatly appreciated

The button on the left next to the 10% is fit to screen I think. Doesn't that solve your issue?
Try to restart the computer and see if the issue was fixed or not.
Open the photo in the Photos app. Look for a zoom slider or pinch-to-zoom gesture (if using a touchpad or touchscreen) and adjust it to fit the image correctly.
Zoom In/Out: Open the image and use the keyboard shortcuts Ctrl + + to zoom in or Ctrl + - to zoom out. You can also use the mouse wheel while holding the Ctrl key to adjust the zoom.
Restart the App: Close the photos app completely and then reopen it.
Restart Your Device: Sometimes, a simple restart can fix display issues.
Check for Updates: Ensure that your photos app and device operating system are up to date. Check for any available updates in the app store or system settings.
Reinstall the App: If the problem persists, consider uninstalling and then reinstalling the photos app.




Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap "Reset all settings". This will reset all iPhone settings to their default values, which might resolve the issue.
