How to Use Camera Control to Open Another App on iPhone 16 [VIDEO]

On iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro, you can use the Camera Control to open another camera app, like Code Scanner, Magnifier, or your favorite third-party camera app.

Instead of opening Camera, you can set the Camera Control to open your favorite third-party camera app, or even set it to not open any app or feature when clicked.

Here’s how to set it up:

• Go to Settings , then tap Camera.
• Tap Camera Control, then choose one of the following options:
  • Camera: Opens Camera.
  • Code Scanner: Opens a QR code scanner.
  • Magnifier: Opens the Magnifier app.
  • None: No app opens when you click the Camera Control.
