Blink and also you may need missed it, however Apple introduced Wednesday that its new and comparatively cheap iPhone XR will include a function we have been wanting for years — a technique to simply activate the flashlight and launch the digital camera with a single hand.
As an alternative of swiping to summon Apple’s Control Center and tapping the icon, you will now be capable of press devoted flashlight and digital camera buttons in your iPhone’s lock display. It is a function that already got here with the iPhone X and can in all probability seem in the pricier XS and XS Max, however it does not seem to exist on the iPhone eight or eight Plus, even working the newest iOS 12 beta. (We checked.)
So that is the primary time it is come to a ‘commonplace’ iPhone, if you’ll.
Thoughts you, it’d turn into too straightforward to launch the flashlight or digital camera in the event you’re not cautious. Whereas the iPhone X, XS and XS Max have pressure-sensitive 3D Contact screens that activate the flashlight or digital camera whenever you press down exhausting, the iPhone XR solely has haptic suggestions. No 3D Contact.
The iPhone XR goes on sale Oct. 26.
