    iPhone XS Photos: how to turn down/off NOISE REDUCTION?

    Overall, I think the XS camera is better, especially coming from an 8. Better low-light especially. But there are a lot of instances where the noise reduction is way, way over-aggressive. Especially when the shots involve people, faces and skin, but I also see a lot of other instances where...

    Dock shadow issue

    I am having a really annoying shadow around the dock. If I hide the dock the shadow goes away with it, so this shadow is clearly attached to the dock. I want it to disappear.
