iOS 18.2: End Accidental Camera Control Presses on iPhone 16 Tim Hardwick | usagoldmines.com

In iOS 18.2, Apple has introduced a thoughtful new feature for the Camera Control button on iPhone 16 models that helps prevent accidental camera launches by requiring the screen to be on before the button will register clicks. Keep reading to gain more control over when the Camera app opens.

Apple located the Camera Control button to make it conveniently placed for quick access, but it can sometimes be too responsive – especially during those moments when you’re not actually trying to take a photo.

Recognizing the potential for this, Apple in iOS 18.2 has added a new Require Screen On feature for Camera Control. It’s particularly useful if you often find your iPhone accidentally opening the Camera app while it’s in your pocket or bag. By requiring the screen to be on first, you can significantly reduce those unwanted camera launches while still maintaining quick access when you need it.

Require Screen On for Camera Control

Here’s how to enable the new option to prevent accidental Camera Control presses:

1. Open the Settings app on your ‌iPhone 16‌.
2. Scroll down and tap Display & Brightness.
3. Look for the Camera Control section.
4. Toggle on Require Screen On.

Once enabled, you’ll need to wake your ‌iPhone‌’s screen before the Camera Control button will respond. This extra step adds just enough friction to prevent accidental activation while keeping the camera readily accessible when you need it.
