Apple is set to weave its emerging Apple Intelligence layer into a new Siri‑centric mode inside the iOS 27 Camera app. The dedicated Siri mode sits next to Photo, Video, Portrait, and Panorama, and the shutter button flashes an Apple Intelligence logo, instantly signaling the feature set to users for everyone who happens to use.

When activated, Visual Intelligence powers the mode, a feature many miss because it currently requires a long press on the Camera Control button. Apple’s update will bring the visual AI under Siri’s umbrella, making the gesture more discoverable and expanding its reach across Health, Contacts, and Wallet apps for all iOS users everywhere today and and.

New capabilities include scanning nutrition labels to feed calorie and macro data straight into the Health app, as well as capturing phone numbers and addresses from business cards to auto‑populate Contacts. In Wallet, the AI can digitize event tickets and membership cards, turning paper slips into reusable digital tokens for event goers and members today and beyond.

Apple plans to unveil iOS 27 at the Worldwide Developers Conference on June 8, 2026. The overhaul signals a broader push to integrate AI across the ecosystem, tightening the line between hardware photos and software insights. With these changes, the Camera app becomes a gateway to everyday data collection, not just image capture for users everywhere today and beyond.
