Apple released the iOS 17 beta 4 version the other day. Among the codes of the new iOS 17 beta, which focuses on performance improvement and bug fix, the functions of the action button of the iPhone 15 Pro series were found. It has become clear what the action button on the iPhone 15 Pro and Phone 15 Pro Max will do.iPhone 15 Pro comes with customizable action button
The action button currently on Apple’s most expensive watch, the Watch Ultra, will similarly be on the new iPhone 15 Pro models. The mute switch on current iPhones will be replaced by the physical button. The action button will allow users to quickly access various functions and settings without unlocking the iPhone or entering an app. Nine different functions can be assigned to this button.
- Access to accessibility features like VoiceOver, Zoom, AssistiveTouch
- Shortcuts created in Siri shortcuts
- Mute ringtones and alerts or turn off silent mode
- Turning on the camera, taking a photo or video
- Turn the flashlight on or off
- Turn on Magnifier to zoom in on small text or objects
- Start speech or text translation
- Record voice memo
- Turn focus mode on or off
It seems that the new action button will be one of the most important new features that distinguishes the iPhone 15 Pro from previous models.
