With the launch of iOS 16 this fall, everyone will be discussing customized lock screens. However, the real star feature of the update can be used (and abused) by millions of people every day across social media and messaging. Any Photo.

I don’t just mean you Own Photos in my library. No, this is a system-wide extensive feature that allows you to extract the subject from images on the Safari web or images in Files. Occasionally with fuzzy edges and weird choices, it’s not perfect, but it can save you a lot of time and get a lot of fun. The mechanism is as follows.

Find the photo and press and hold the subject

Find the image in the Photos, Safari, or File app and press and hold the subject you want to crop. This can be almost anything as long as it can be distinguished from the background. You can select people, animals, and virtually any object.

If you press and hold to select an image, you will feel a slight tactile vibration. Then release your finger and the white outline will move around it, displaying a pop-up menu (if you don’t see the pop-up menu, try tapping the subject again). This menu depends on the app. In a photo, you may only see “Copy” and “Share”.

In Safari, long-pressing an image doesn’t select the subject, but it gives you options on how to handle the entire image (share, add to photo, copy, and). Copy subject.. Select the last option to cut the subject and copy it to the clipboard.

Place the image where you need it

Once you have copied the image, you can paste it in the same way you would paste it to the clipboard. Open the message, tap the message space,[ペースト。 ファイルを開き、目的のフォルダに移動してから、空のスペースを長押しして、 ペースト。

ただし、マルチタスクが得意な場合は、コピーアンドペーストダンスを行う必要はありません。 写真アプリ、カメラロール、またはファイルアプリでは、画像の被写体を長押しすると、指を押したまま画像のコピーがページから「浮き上がり」ます。 これでドラッグできるようになりました。画面に指を置いたままであれば、他の指を使って他のアプリにスワイプし、切り取った被写体をドラッグアンドドロップするだけです。画像を長押しします。写真、「持ち上げられた」被写体に指を置いたまま、メッセージまでスワイプしてドロップインします。

Appleは、これらの画像とPNGを透明な背景で扱います。これは、それらを使ってより創造的なことをしたい人にとって便利です。

macOSVenturaでどのように機能するか

ご想像のとおり、これはiPadOS16を搭載したiPadでも機能します。 しかし、実際にはmacOS Venturaにも組み込まれています！ Safariまたはフォトで、任意の画像を右クリックして（または、タッチパッドを2本の指でタップして）、[件名をコピー]Select to copy to the clipboard.If you’re using another application (or another browser), save the image first, then use Quick Look (spacebar) in the Finder to open the image and right-click.[件名をコピー]Choose.

You can then paste the image into any application that accepts images from the clipboard, such as messages, emails, and notes.

It also works with paused videos!

If you’re playing a video in the Photos app, you can pause and select the subject like a still image. However, this doesn’t really work for all videos on the web. Especially if you are using your own video player. The workaround is to take a screenshot and copy the subject from that image. This takes an extra step or two, but it’s a much more reliable method.
