I have an image and I need to shrink its size — make it physically smaller while keeping its aspect ratio. How do I do this on an iPhone?

My Google-fu isn’t succeeding. Note, I’m not talking about its file size (MB, etc). I need to, for example, reduce it from 2” x 2” to 1” x 1” — example only.

Need answer fast. Thanks!!
