How to View Image Size (Resolution) on iPhone

This practical guide explains how to View Image Size (Resolution) on iPhone through clear, ordered steps. It also covers useful settings, common mistakes, and checks that can improve the final result.

Every digital image stored on your iPhone has a certain resolution, which is determined by the number of pixels in the image. Simply put, the more pixels an image has, the more detail it stores, or in other words, the higher the resolution.

If you're running iOS 15 or later, here's how to see the size (resolution) of an image (in pixels) in the Photos app on your iPhone.

View Image Size on iPhone

First, open the Photos app on your iPhone. Find the album containing the image whose metadata you want to check. In the thumbnail view, tap the photo whose resolution you want to find.

In the photo's detail view, tap the 'Info' button located on the toolbar at the bottom of your screen (it looks like a lowercase 'i' in a circle).

After tapping the Info button, you will see a small text box appear at the bottom of the screen that includes the image's metadata. You can see the image resolution and image dimensions in the second line, such as '12 MP' and '4032 x 3024' as in the example below.

In this case, '12 MP' means 12 megapixels, the approximate pixel count of the image, and '4032 x 3024' means the image is 4032 pixels wide x 3024 pixels high.

To close the image's metadata box, tap the Info button again. You can repeat this for any other images in your Photos library that you want to find the specific resolution and pixel dimensions for.

Hope this little trick is useful to you!
