Now your iPhone camera will dance to your tune! Apple is making a major change
Apple may showcase these new features at its WWDC 2026 event. The company is preparing major changes to several system apps, including the Camera app, Siri, Safari, and Weather. This is believed to be the biggest change to the iPhone's interface in years.
Apple is preparing to give users a new experience with its next major iPhone update. Reports suggest that the Camera app in iOS 27 could see a complete redesign, and for the first time, users could have the option to customize camera controls. Furthermore, Siri is also set to become smarter and more chatbot-like. Apple is working to make the iPhone more personal and AI-powered through this update.
Now the user can change the camera layout himself
According to a Bloomberg report, Apple may offer complete customization of the Camera app. Users will be able to set controls like flash, exposure, timer, resolution, and photo style anywhere on the screen to their liking.
This feature will function as a movable widget, allowing for different layouts to be created for different camera modes. Apple is also reportedly introducing a new "Add Widgets" tray that will open from the bottom of the Camera app.
Advanced controls like depth of field and manual exposure options may also be provided for users who enjoy professional photography. This could make the iPhone camera experience even more professional.
Siri will become as smart as ChatGPT
Apple is also preparing to completely overhaul Siri. Reports suggest that the new Siri will not only be a voice assistant, but will also function as an advanced AI system that can understand users' individual needs.
The company may also incorporate a custom version of Google's Gemini AI model into its system. The new Siri will feature a chatbot-style interface, making both text and voice conversations more natural.
The report states that the Siri interface may appear in a dynamic island, and users will have a "Search or Ask" bar from which to ask questions directly. It may also include text conversations like ChatGPT and AI-based web search features.
AI Visual Intelligence feature will be available in the camera
Apple may also add an AI-based visual intelligence mode to the Camera app in iOS 27. This feature will allow users to identify objects, translate text, and use visual AI tools directly within the camera interface by opening the camera.
This could reduce the need to open a separate app. According to the report, this feature will be available alongside photo and video modes, giving users instant access to AI.
Apple may also redesign its Image Playground app, which could include the ability to create more realistic AI images. This could transform the iPhone camera into a smart AI platform rather than just a photo-taking tool.
Changes to Safari, Weather, and System interfaces
According to reports, Apple is also planning to make several system-level changes in iOS 27 and macOS 27. The Safari browser's start page could be simplified to make it easier to access favorites, bookmarks, and history.
