Revolutionize Your iPhone Videos: iOS 18 Introduces Game-Changing Pause Button for Seamless Recording
Apple Unveils iOS 18 Updates: Pause Function for Video Recording and JPEG-XL Support
At the recent Apple event, the tech giant announced the release candidate (RC) of iOS 18 to developers and public beta testers. Among the exciting updates is the addition of a pause function when recording video.
Pause Function for Video Recording
When recording a video on iOS 18, users will notice a new pause button displayed on the left side of the screen. This feature allows users to pause and resume video recording at any time, providing more flexibility and control. The center stop button can still be used to stop the video recording entirely.
The pause function is likely linked to the new camera control button introduced in the iPhone 16 series, offering users a more seamless and intuitive video recording experience.
iPhone 16 Pro Supports JPEG-XL Files
According to code found in iOS 18, the iPhone 16 Pro will support JPEG-XL files, a new image format that offers better compression and smaller file sizes. Unlike the HEIC format introduced by Apple a few years ago, JPEG-XL supports both lossy and lossless compression, making it a preferred choice among professionals who require high-quality images without degradation.
Official Release Date for iOS 18
The official release date for iOS 18 is set for September 16th. The iPhone 16 series, scheduled for release on September 20th, is expected to come with iOS 18 pre-installed.
