Moving an object pixelwise in Photoshop for iPad

Hi everyone. I have done some light trail photography and I am stacking the photos together on my iPad.
I wish there is an Auto-alignment function in Photoshop for iPad but unluckily there isnt.
So I need to drag different layers of images to align them manually.
And then I found another problem. I couldn't drag the images pixelwise. Even the smallest move is about a 10-pixel increment. I cant really align the images precisely.
Does anyone have a soloution for this?

Instead of dragging (Move tool), try using your arrow keys to nudge one pixel at a time or include the Shift key to move ten pixels at a time. Will that work for you?

Thank you for the suggestion. But I don't have a keyboard for my iPad. Does this mean I can't nudge the image?

Hi @cySSSS ,
I disabled by Magic keypad and cannot find away to move images by one pixel. Possibly another volunteer will have a better solution.

I take it you don't have access to Photoshop on a PC?
I found another thread that might help if you can pair a keyboard to your iPad.
Please let us know how you get on.

Thanks for your help. I do not own a keyboard for my iPad but i tried to contol my iPad with my macbook. And yes, using the keyboard does allow me to nudge the objects. but then i‘d rather use the desktop version of photoshop.

I agree that Photoshop for iPad should be functional without a keyboard for those who choose not to get one.
