According to foreign technology media 9to5Mac, there are user feedbacks from Apple’s latest iOS 17 operating system. Users mentioned in feedback that they realized the magnifying glass tool was missing when using the Markup function. The reason for the disappearance is speculated to be a potential software issue, and Apple may fix this issue in a future update.
Since the first beta release of iOS/iPadOS 17, media reports have pointed out that the magnifying glass tool was not present in the markup feature. However, since this issue has not received widespread attention, users have not really paid attention to it in the past period of time. In this case, the official description of Apple iOS 17 still contains the function description of the magnifying glass.
According to the introduction of the markup feature in iOS 17, users can use the markup function in supported applications to zoom in and display or draw details. When using this feature, users can make more precise drawing and shape adjustments by spreading their fingers. At the same time, you can also drag with two fingers to view the enlarged content, and pinch with two fingers to zoom out.
To use the Magnifying Glass tool, users need to find the Markup Toolbar in a supported application, tap the +Add button, and select Magnifying Glass. With this, people can use the magnifying glass tool to view or edit more details depending on their specific needs.
However, now, the disappearance of the magnifying glass tool has obviously caused trouble to users. It is expected that Apple can quickly fix and re-launch this feature to meet users’ needs for detailed and precise operations.
