This automatically allows you to Replay the exact steps on any photo in your camera roll moving forward. Gone are the days of having to remember the exact opacity, blur level, and filter layers. You can always manually edit your photos mid-replay if you need to tailor it for a specific photo. Simply go to your saved Replays and tap Replay on my image to get going.
