FAQ

What is the maximum number of photos I can stitch?
There is no hard limit, but stitching a large number of high-resolution photos will take longer. For best performance, keep it under 20 photos at a time.

How is the order of photos determined?
The shortcut stitches photos in the order you select them. In the Photos app, the first photo you tap will appear at the top (vertical) or left (horizontal).

Does stitching reduce image quality?
No. The shortcut preserves the original resolution of each photo. The output dimensions will be the sum of individual photo dimensions in the stitching direction.

Can I stitch photos of different sizes together?
Yes, but results look best when all photos have the same width (for vertical stitching) or same height (for horizontal stitching).

Requirements
