With the release of the iPhone 16 models, Apple came through with a new feature, the Camera Control, which they refused to call a button. With a single press you can quickly launch the Camera app, then a subsequent half-press will bring up the camera menu options.
The Magnifier feature on the iPhone is an accessibility tool designed to help users zoom in on objects or text in their environment. This tool turns your phone into a digital magnifying glass, allowing for an adjustable zoom, brightness, and contrast. It’s ideal for people with low vision or for those who occasionally need a little extra clarity.
If you find that you constantly need to use this accessibility feature, it may be handy for you to possibly launch it quicker. You may not fancy the laboring task of going through loads of menus to do so.
