iOS 26 brings a number of distinctive
0:11
changes to the user interface of
0:14
eligible iPhone models. It completely
0:17
changes how iOS looks and feels and in
0:21
some cases how it operates. The iPhone
0:24
camera is one of the things that has
0:27
changed with iOS 26. Apple has done
0:31
pretty much a complete redesign of the
0:35
camera app. Let's start by seeing how it
0:40
works to switch through modes. Now, it
0:43
may not be obvious to you that there are
0:45
more modes than just photo and video
0:47
here. But if you hold and move your
0:51
finger horizontally, you can go from
0:54
pano, portrait, photo, video, slow-mo,
0:59
and lapse, time-lapse. And all you have
1:03
to do is hold and slide horizontally
1:08
to pick whatever photo mode or camera
1:12
mode you're looking for. It's a nice
1:14
touch to it. You can see how the liquid
1:17
glass design actually comes into play
1:20
there. If you pick say the portrait or
1:24
the photo mode and you look in your top
1:27
right corner, you can tap on this to
1:30
reveal a number of options including
1:34
what you do with the flash, live
1:36
photography, timer, adjust your
1:40
exposure, pick a filter, change the
1:43
aspect ratio to make it all work. Again,
1:47
you can see how the liquid glass display
1:50
actually comes to play here. It's
1:52
beautiful. It's user friendly for sure.
1:57
If you also tap the lightning icon up
2:01
here, you can change the setting for
2:04
your flash instantly. Flash off, flash
2:09
auto, flash off. Nice. Now, let's go to
2:13
the video mode.
2:16
Also up here you have access to a number
2:19
of quick features, flash and exposure in
2:22
this case. Now you also have access to
2:26
turning your flash on and off as you
2:29
wish. But perhaps the most interesting
2:32
change here in the video mode is in the
2:35
top left corner. When you tap on this,
2:38
you immediately have access to changing
2:41
the resolution of your video as well as
2:43
the frame rate instantly. You can switch
2:46
from HD to 4K video. You can switch from
2:50
24 frames pers to 30 to 60 immediately
2:54
and just go right back to recording your
2:57
video. Of course, you can zoom in, zoom
3:00
out depending on what you want to
3:03
achieve. And this upper uh layer of
3:08
settings are a common thing, a common
3:11
theme through the new app. Again, in
3:13
portrait mode, you can quickly adjust
3:14
your flash, aperture, timer, exposure,
3:17
filter, and all of that. In all, I think
3:21
that the camera apps redesign is
3:24
beautiful. It's well done, and you will
3:28
like it. In slow-mo mode, again, you
3:33
have this toggle that immediately gives
3:36
you options to change a number of
3:39
settings for the video. Also, in the top
3:42
left corner, you can change the frame
3:44
rate for your slow motion video
3:46
instantly and then you record. Whichever
3:51
mode you go into, these options are
3:53
mostly there. some more than others, but
3:56
they all work that way. If we switch to
4:00
the selfie camera, you see the same
4:02
options here. They show up here.
4:07
Video,
4:10
same options. And then that top left
4:12
corner to change your resolution and
4:14
frame rate works quite well. So, this is
4:18
iOS 26, the camera app. It looks lovely.
4:22
It's as simple as the iPhone camera has
4:25
always been, but it works a little bit
4:28
differently, significantly more in some
4:31
areas, but yes, it works differently
4:33
than it used to. It looks different, it
4:36
works different, and it's a nice touch
4:38
on the whole iOS 26 experience. Let me
4:42
know what you think.
