I had been looking forward to the iPhone 16’s Camera Control button ever since it first popped up in early rumors. After over a month with the iPhone 16 Plus, however, the Camera Control turned out to be a somewhat large disappointment for this longtime iPhone user. The button works as intended. It opens the camera app faster than before. It just doesn’t work well for me. I hold the iPhone in my left hand, so there’s no convenient way to reach the button. My protective case makes it even harder than it should be.
I’d love it if Apple made radical changes to the iPhone’s buttons that would let me swap the location of the Camera Control button with a unified Volume button. That’s not going to happen anytime soon, but Apple is working to make the Camera Control better in the meantime. A new “Require Screen On” option that just appeared in iOS 18.2 beta 3 is one way Apple is improving this feature.
