Potential bug: iOS 17 contact photos off center

When setting contact photos, it would always default to the center of the selected photo until iOS 17 came around. Now on iOS 17, it defaults to the left of the selected photo. For square photos it defaults to the top left. This makes everything off center.

Contact image still won’t staying cropped When I create a Memoji contact photo for my contacts, I usually crop the image down. The problem is that iOS removes the cropping from the contact image a few seconds later. Someone complained about this nearly 2 years ago, and your response was an unrelated tutorial on how to use the Photos app to crop photos. Can you please actually work on solving this problem? Over 120 people reported it was an issue worth reaching out to the community for, years ago.

iOS 16.5 Contact photo does not keep zoom cropping and shifts back to Original iOS 16.5 Contact photo does not keep zoom cropping and shifts back to Original. I am observing this issue since very beginning. After I assign the contact with any pics by adjusting the zoom & cropping. For a while everything is ok. I can see the contacts face as needed but the problem starts after some time, when the contacts image revert back to full size. The zoom and crop function is not working literally. I can see that many iphone users are facing similar issues since very long time.

Slip-up on my end: I’ve selected the incorrect device for this issue. I am using an iPhone 13 on iOS 17.0.3 and not an iPhone 7 on iOS 14.
