Rumors are circulating about a significant redesign of the Camera app in the upcoming iOS 19. Leaked information suggests that the new Camera app will adopt design elements from Apple’s visionOS, the operating system for its Vision Pro headset.
The redesigned interface is said to feature a cleaner layout with consolidated controls. Two main toggles for “Photo” and “Video” would provide access to various shooting modes and settings, while frequently used controls like Live Photos and flash would be readily accessible at the top.
This streamlined design would maximize the camera viewfinder’s screen space, potentially offering a more immersive photography experience. By reducing visual clutter, the redesign could simplify camera operation and allow users to focus on capturing their shots.
The rumored design draws inspiration from visionOS’s translucent interface elements, hinting at a possible broader adoption of this aesthetic in iOS 19. However, it’s important to note that Apple’s plans could change before the official announcement of iOS 19, which is still several months away.
