Action Mode has been available for iPhone users since the release of the iPhone 14. Apple uses a combination of hardware and software tricks to make sure the image recorded is always steady. Along with stabilizing footage, there’s a whole new use case that Apple showed off for this feature. The company shared a video called\u00a0“No Frame Missed,”<\/a> which tells the story of a father who has Parkinson’s but continues to record videos with shaky hands, thanks to the iPhone’s Action Mode.<\/p>\n This feature lets you capture smooth handheld videos by recording a wider image than you see, and cropping and shifting the frame in real time to cancel out shaky hands or bumpy movements. In addition, Apple uses the iPhone’s optical image stabilization to smooth out jerks and sudden movements.\u00a0While Apple first promoted Action Mode as a feature meant to record footage while running or playing a sport, the ad reveals how this feature can also be a great accessibility tool. Activating Action Mode is as simple as enabling a toggle within the Camera app.<\/p>\n
