How the iPhone 15 Pro Action button works, and how it could be even better

The iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max come with a new Action button - here's how it works, what it can do, and what I want next from Apple.

As expected, the Action button supports various shortcuts, and you can choose from 9 initially. However, this unique iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max trick isn’t as capable as I expected. Still, I have high hopes that future iOS updates will improve its functionality.By default, the new Action button will let you silence the iPhone 15 Pro or Pro Max. Just tap the button to toggle between Ring and Silent mode. The iPhone will vibrate to indicate it registered the action.

This is a great start for the Action mode. When I upgrade to an iPhone with an Action button, I’ll want to take advantage of a few of these shortcuts. The Voice Memo, Translate, Shortcut, and Accessibility options are my top choices. Accessibility specifically looks like the most exciting, as it can open the door to even more functionality attached to the Action button.
