Tap with two fingers to zoom out all the way quickly. This always applies to photos and other pinch and pull items.

The pinch feature is great for web pages aswell as maps and photos.

Btw on your maps does it find your location when you tap the target symbol in the bottom left corner or does it just sit there with a loading symbol and do nothing like mine does?

Mine always says unable to find location, but when I connect to my friends home hub it says I'm somewhere in the south of england when AAMOF I am in Leeds? LOL

once mine got to within 100m of where i was on my home network, perfect. But it doesn't even say unable to find it just stays on the loading symbol.

I think it does it based on your IP, sometimes your IP is right where you live, sometimes, like mine, it is where my ISP is based.
