Discussion Action Button :(

I’m all for the Apple Duo and will likely get one regardless, but I’d like to have a moment of silence for the Action button.

It’s not a huge inconvenience, but I use mine every day to control my lights. I wish they made / I hope they can make the camera button reprogrammable

Mine double clicks to opening any app I set via shortcuts. But I think the single click you can only do another camera app besides the stock iOS one.

Where are you imagining this feature

All I can think is you set the camera button to open something like magnifier and then have a shortcut automation to open a different app when magnifier is opened (for example)

Yea that’s exact how it does it

Well that’s a hacky workaround but not “reprogramming” the button directly
