In the past days, I saw a discussion in our community about the "Grid" option for the smartphone, therefore, I decided to do a little research about it.

What is the Camera Grid?

The Camera Grid is a visual aid, a visual feature that you can use on your smartphone to divide your photo using four lines, which are displayed horizontally and vertically along the screen. The Grid is not visible after the photo is taken, however, the Grid is visible when you are taking the photo.

On what smartphones is the Camera Grid available?

The Camera Grid is available on most smartphones and it can usually be found in the "Settings".
How to enable the Camera Grid on iPhone?

Once you are in "Settings", you look for "Camera" and you tap on it.

In "Camera", you scroll down to "Composition", where you have the "Grid". You can turn the Camera Grid on and off by tapping on the "Grid".

The Camera Grid is available on more affordable phones, too. For example, on Huawei P40 Lite.

In order to enable Grid Lines, you start by going to your Home Screen. On the bottom right corner of the screen, you open the "Camera" app.

From the "Camera" app, you tap on the "Settings" from the top right side of the screen.

In the "Camera Settings", you can turn the Assistive grid on or off.

 
I use the Camera Grid each time when I take a photo with my smartphone, It's a great feature to be honest. The downside is that older or cheaper phones do not come with this feature.
