Three very useful but hidden features of the Camera app on iPhone with iOS 18

iOS 18 Update: 3 Hidden Camera Features You Should Know About
The iOS 18 update brought numerous improvements to the iPhone, enhancing both the operating system and its apps. Among these, the Camera app, which we use almost every day, received some subtle updates that could truly make a difference.
Here are three hidden gems that could simplify your life while capturing photos or recording videos with your iPhone:

1. 5-Second Timer for Selfies

Have you ever tried to take a selfie and found yourself in a dilemma: 3 seconds is too short, and 10 seconds too long? With iOS 18, the perfect solution is here: a 5-second timer!
Setting it up is incredibly simple:
  • Tap the upward arrow in the Camera screen.
  • Look for the timer icon (if you don’t see it, scroll through the controls).
  • Now, select “3s,” “5s,” or “10s.”
It’s a seemingly small addition, but it can make a huge difference in capturing better shots without rushing.

2. Pause While Recording Video

Finally! With iOS 18, you can pause a video while recording it directly from the Camera app. This means you can create a single video with different scenes without spending hours stitching clips together during editing.
A real time-saver, right? Just press the pause button to stop recording and resume when you're ready. Easy and super intuitive.

3. Quick Flash Control

Turning the flash on or off has always been one of the most frequent tasks before taking a photo. Now, with iOS 18, you can control the flash with a long tap on the corresponding icon. This gesture instantly shows all the options:
  • Auto Flash
  • Flash On
  • Flash Off
Alternatively, you can access flash settings directly from the Camera’s main controls. A small update that makes everything much more intuitive.
