Engineers Changed iPhone Photo Editing Tools For No Apparent; Or, Beneficial Reason.

Apple changed the photo editing workflow in iOS27.1. And it made NOTHING better.

I have been using the photo editing tools on iPhone since they were first introduced. In fact, I was part of the team that made it work in the first place. And, now the engineers just seem to want to change things for the sake of change. Like changing the "Done" button from visible yellow to dried mustard in color. NOT a pleasant change. And, now after a dozen years of a work flow that opened to the adjustments panel when you first clicked to edit the photo; for no apparent reason, the engineers decided to flip the first editing panel to the crop tools. WHY? I edit hundreds of photos a day, and DO NOT appreciate someone throwing a wrench into the machine that worked perfectly fine.

What will it take to revert the workflow back to what it was for many years?

You aren't running iOS 27.1 on your 12 Pro Max, iOS 27.1 is only for the iPhone Duo.
