iOS 19 would feature a completely redesigned Camera app


We’re still waiting to see the final form of iOS 18 as Apple Intelligence continues its slow rollout, but that hasn’t stopped leakers from moving on to Apple’s next big software update. Friday, Front Page Technology host Jon Prosser shared new details about iOS 19 in his latest video, including a look at the redesigned Camera app that’s reportedly in the works.

Prosser says he got a glimpse of the refreshed Camera app in action, but in order to protect his source at Apple, he couldn’t share that video directly. Instead, he and his team recreated the video from scratch, which you can watch below:

As the video shows, the iOS 19 version of the app is much less busy than the current Camera app. Rather than showing you all your options up front, the new app condenses the modes into two menus: Photo and Video. Here’s what each menu has to offer:

  • Photo: Depth, Spatial, Pano, Style, Aspect, Exposure, Timer
  • Video: Depth, Spatial, Slow Motion, Timelapse, Action, Exposure

While the video menu is open at the bottom of the screen, a second menu will appear at the top, giving users the option to change the resolution and frame rate.

Prosser suspects that the Camera app might just be the tip of the iceberg for iOS 19. The visual language appears to mirror that of Apple’s visionOS Vision Pro. He assumes that we will see a large-scale overhaul of iOS 19, taking inspiration from visionOS.

He also admits that it’s possible that these items are simply improvements in the update rather than the basis of an entirely new look for iOS. Major software leaks are hard to find at Apple, so we may have to wait until September to find out.
