How To Flip Multiple Pictures At The Same Time
You don’t need any third parties to flip multiple pictures at once. All you need is to follow my guidance. You can do this within iPhone or iPad with the Shortcuts app that’s on your device by default.
You can download my shortcut here. It will automatically download the shortcut that will allow you to flip multiple pictures at once.
- Open ‘Shortcuts’
- Tap on ‘+’ to create a new shortcut
- Name it ‘Flip Pictures’
- Add Action ‘Select Photos’
- Add the next one ‘Flip Image’
- Add the next one, ‘Save To Photo Album’
- Press ‘Done’
Assuming you did everything correctly, when you press on that new shortcut your Photo Reel will open up and you can just tap on all the photos you wish to reveart and when you have selected them, they will automatically save to your recent photos.
