Excitement is at its peak for the iPhone 15 family, the newest phones that Apple will introduce in the coming months. While the curious wait was going on, information about the devices was coming. One of them was that the volume key would become an “Action” key with multiple functions.
Claims about this key were originally made in the past months. In the leak at the time, it was stated that the button would be a programmable key that could perform different actions, just like on the Apple Watch Ultra. Today, more information has come about this feature and it is almost certain that the key will be on the iPhone 15.
The key, which is expected to come to Pro models, will allow easy access to many applications or features.
According to the report shared by MacRumors, codes containing clues about the functions of the key were found in the last beta of iOS 17. Incoming information reveals that the key will be customizable and will have nine options that users can assign to different actions.
In addition, the applications and features that the new action button can access are also listed by MacRumors. If it really comes, the things that can be accessed via the key can be;
- Accessibility
- Shortcuts
- silent mode
- Camera
- Flashlight
- Focus
- Magnifying glass
- Translation
- Voice Memos
Let’s add that the action button, which can provide great convenience by performing functions without unlocking the phone or having to navigate between applications, is only expected to be offered on iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max.
