Apple introduced a new photo Extend feature with the iOS 27 update that lets users extend the outer edges of their photos using Siri AI generative technology. It comes in really handy when you want to change a photo’s aspect ratio or adjust its framing.
However, only iPhones that support Siri AI can use this feature, so people with older iPhones are limited to third-party AI tools. Now, according to WABetaInfo, WhatsApp is adding a similar feature to its iOS app, allowing you to create stories or share photos with friends without switching between apps.
How do you expand a photo in WhatsApp?
Android users have had this option for a while, and now WhatsApp is testing it with a small group of iPhone beta users. To try it, open any photo from a chat and you’ll land in WhatsApp’s editing screen, which already has a few AI effects.
