Crop a photo in a different aspect ratio.

Hi all.
Perhaps I missing something really obvious but I will ask anyway. When I take a photo and I use the little circles icon in the bottom left corner to edit it; how can I crop the image to an aspect ratio of my choice? It seems locked to a default setting. I realise I could do the cropping outside the stock app, but surely it should be possible without that.
Cheers

Not an ideal solution, and perhaps there are others as well, but...

Once in Crop mode, look for a square box just above the three-circle icon (it probably says "Original" within). Tap the box and choose a new aspect ratio from the list. You will still be limited to one of a small number of predefined aspect ratios, but better than no choice at all.

Ah brilliant thanks. In fact if you select "None" from that list, it let's you drag the crop box to any shape. Cheers for your help

Ha! I didn't notice that one at all! Thanks for pointing it out.
