Apple plans to make the Camera app more customizable in iOS 27, reports Bloomberg. Users will be able to select the features they want to see in the Camera app, such as flash, exposure, timer, depth of field, photo styles, and resolution.
Camera controls, called widgets, can be placed at the top of the camera interface in any order. Users will be able to select widgets from a transparent widget tray that appears at the bottom of the app. The widgets will be organized into categories including Basic, Manual, and Settings.
Apple plans to use the same default layout currently available with quick-tap buttons for flash, Live Photos and night mode, but the customizable interface will be added as a new advanced layout that will appeal to professional users.
Different modes like photo and video will have their own set of widgets, as will a new Siri camera mode that Apple plans to add to the app. Siri mode will integrate visual intelligence features currently accessible via camera control or action buttons.
Currently, users can access a view with all camera controls at the top right of the app, but that view shifts to the right of the shutter button. Apple will also add new grid and level options.
In the Weather app, there will be a new Conditions panel to toggle between temperature, rain, and wind. This will be the same as the interface available when accessing any of the weather modules in the current version of the application.
Apple plans to add an updated start page to Safari, and it will have four tabs at the top for switching between Favorites, Bookmarks, Reading List, and History.
System-wide design changes are also coming, according to Bloomberg. The tab bar in apps like Apple Music, Podcasts, News, and Apple TV will be adjusted to combine search with other navigation options. Apple separated search across many apps when it introduced Liquid Glass, but it appears the company will return to the previous unified design.
When using the on-screen keyboard, a new animation shows the keys sliding up from the bottom of the iPhone interface, and Apple is adding redo and undo commands to correct actions when customizing the layout of Home screen icons and widgets.
Apple plans to preview iOS 27 at the Worldwide Developers Conference starting June 8.
