The iPhone 16’s Capture button will also handle zoom and focus functions, in addition to starting the camera – what you need to know.
Apple has improved the abilities of the iPhone camera with each generation, but the photo-taking experience has remained largely unchanged. You go to the camera app, and you snap the picture or record the video.
Most of the time, you just tap on the screen or press the volume buttons. If you want to tweak the focus and zoom, you’ll perform a variety of screen gestures. You’d also swipe on the screen to go into the video recording mode on your iPhone.
This might change once the iPhone 16 series lands in September. Several reports detailed a brand-new, mysterious Capture button for the iPhone 16 in the past few months. More recent ones have tied the Capture button to the camera, prompting me to realize the button might be a bigger hardware upgrade than the Action button or the iPhone 15’s USB-C port.
The Capture button might let you take photos and videos faster than ever by giving you faster access to the camera than other options.
