Bloomberg journalist Mark Gurman reports that Apple is set to roll out a host of substantial artificial intelligence (AI) enhancements for the built-in iPhone Camera and Photos apps in the forthcoming iOS 27 system. These innovative features are slated for an official announcement at the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC 2026), commencing on June 8. The report draws on information from internal sources and industry insiders, and provides a glimpse into the interface screenshots and interaction methods associated with these new features.

The Camera app in iOS 27 will boast customizable interface layouts, empowering users to effortlessly rearrange the positions of frequently utilized functions, including the flash, exposure control, and timer. Additionally, the Camera app will seamlessly integrate the new Siri Visual Intelligence feature, granting users the ability to activate it directly within the camera interface for tasks such as scanning food nutrition labels and recognizing business cards.

As for the Photos app, iOS 27 will introduce three cutting-edge AI editing tools—Expand, Enhance, and Reframe. These tools are designed to intelligently fill in image edges, optimize image quality with a single tap, and readjust the photo's perspective, respectively. Together, they offer comprehensive support for post-production image creation, enabling users to elevate their photography to new heights.
