A lot has changed in iOS in recent years. If you've been using an iPhone for a long time, you probably know that, among other things, the ways of entering time data have also changed, for example in the Clock. In the past, users were presented with a rotating dial interface that allowed you to set the time by swiping up or down. Then Apple came up with a change and we started to enter the time data classically using the keyboard. Some users liked the original interface, others liked the new one, Apple decided to return the original one with the possibility of using the new one anyway. So if you like typing with the keyboard, just tap the rotating dial with your finger to bring up the keyboard.
Changing the time and date the photo was taken
If you take a picture with an iPhone or any other digital camera, so-called metadata, i.e. data about the data, is stored in it. Thanks to metadata, we can read from a photo, for example, when, where and with what it was taken, how the camera was set and much more. Until recently, if you wanted to change metadata on images, you needed a third-party application to do so. However, you can currently edit the metadata of photos directly in photos, and that you are you click on the picture, and then tap on icon ⓘ. Subsequently, in the interface with open metadata, click on in the upper right part Edit. After that you are able to change the time and date the picture was taken, together with time zone.
