Apple reportedly has a lot of changes planned for the Camera app - Engadget

"The biggest change Apple is making to the Camera app is to make it more customizable. Rather than being stuck with the company's predetermined interface for shooting photos and capturing videos, you'll reportedly be able to tweak it to your liking. Bloomberg reports iPhones will still default to a familiar Apple interface, but individual widgets for controlling things like resolution, flash or whether live photos are on or off will be able to be swapped for other options from a new “Add Widgets” tray."

"The app will reportedly also include more “advanced” options like controls for depth-of-field, exposure and the company's photo styles feature. Apple offers a theoretically easy way to tweak these settings on the iPhone by using the Camera Control button, but changing things from the touchscreen should be even easier. As part of these interface tweaks, Apple is also adding new grid and level features while you're capturing images and moving the toggle that lets you see all your available controls from the top right of the Camera app to the right of the shutter button."

"Some of Apple's AI updates are coming to the camera, as well. Rather than having a separate interface for Visual Intelligence you can only access through the Camera Control, Apple is reportedly adding a new Siri mode to the Camera app for accessing AI features that use the camera, like using image search or translating text. AI will reportedly power new photo editing tools, too."

"Siri's changes are equally massive. Besides being smarter, the AI assistant's glowing animation is moving from the border of iPhones, to a new home in the Dynamic Island as"

iOS 27 is expected to significantly change the iPhone Camera app by making it more customizable. The default interface will remain familiar, but users will be able to swap individual control widgets through an “Add Widgets” tray. The app will also add advanced controls such as depth-of-field, exposure, and photo styles. Interface changes include new grid and level features and moving the control toggle to the right of the shutter button. AI features are also expected to be integrated into the Camera app through a new Siri mode for camera-based tasks like image search and translating text. AI will also power new photo editing tools, while Siri’s glowing animation is expected to move to the Dynamic Island.
