Speculation about the iPhone 15 Pro has been circulating for months, and the code discovery in the iOS 17 Beta 4 has fueled some of the rumors. The idea of a unified volume button and a new button design for the mute switch that could be converted into an action button has caught the attention of the tech world.

From accessibility to camera and flashlight to translation and voice notes – the possible applications could be diverse. MacRumors reportedthat users can personalize the button and link it to different actions to further customize their user experience. In addition, the action button could also play an important role in the camera app. With its solid-state construction, a short press could activate autofocus, while a long press could trigger the photo capture. The introduction of haptic feedback combined with force sensitivity could further improve the user experience and make operation even more intuitive. It is important to note that previous reports of problems in the production of solid-state buttons may have prompted Apple to refrain from this design. Nevertheless, the current codes suggest that the action button could still play a prominent role in the iPhone 15 Pro model. (Photo by hadrian / Bigstockphoto)
