Preview mini is inspired by the macOS Preview app. Its aim is to bring the intuitive photo editing capabilities of its role model to iOS and iPadOS. Like in the desktop version you can easily resize, mirror and rotate images with only a few taps:

Resize images and decrease photo size pixel-perfect.

After tapping the three dotted options button in the upper right corner, tap on ‘Resize’. A new panel opens and you can enter the exact pixel size you want the image to be set to. The two arrowed button on the right lets you decide on how the auto-ratio should be applied. Disable it if you want to resize the image freely and without keeping any ratio. Otherwise the height will change as well if you edit the pixel width. Preview mini for iOS. macOS Preview for iPhone and iPad.
