Rescue blurry pictures

February 8, 2024

🤳🏼 Ever had one of those “oops” moments taking pictures? You know, when your hand wobbles and your photo becomes as elusive as a Bigfoot sighting (or, in my case, my dog, Abby, doing something super cute)?

Before you rush to delete it, hang tight! Most phones have a built-in “sharpness” feature. If you’re looking for the quickest fix, this is probably it.

For iPhone: 

• Open the Photos app and select the blurry photo.
• Tap Edit in the top right corner. Scroll through the Adjust menu until you find Sharpness.
• Slide your finger left or right on the bar to make the photo sharper. Hit Done to finish up.

For Android:

• Open the Gallery app and choose the blurry photo. 
• Tap the Edit icon in the bottom row. 
• Tap the Brightness icon and scroll until you find Sharpness. 
• Slide your finger left or right on the bar to make the photo sharper. Hit Save.

Note: Steps may vary. Newer Android phones may also have an Unblur feature under Gallery Tools. Adjust the slider to improve your image.
