## Zoom that finally feels like the real camera Zooming no longer freezes the viewfinder when it crosses between lenses — the picture flows smoothly from 0.5x all the way out, with no hard cut in framing or exposure. Press and hold the zoom buttons (or drag sideways) and they unfold into a curved zoom dial you can sweep with one thumb, with haptic ticks and a gentle magnetic pull at every lens stop. Pinch works too, and the dial follows along. ## Shoot with the volume buttons Press either volume button to fire the shutter, just like the system camera. It captures the instant you press down, with the same haptics, flash and photo limits as the on-screen button — and the buttons go back to controlling volume as soon as the viewfinder isn't what's in front of you. ## Straight to the shutter from your Live Activity Tapping a moment's Live Activity now opens the viewfinder almost immediately instead of taking a few seconds to get there. The camera starts warming up the moment you tap. Once a moment has ended, that same tap takes you to its gallery instead. ## Watch friends join, live Hold up the share screen and each person who scans in now arrives with a banner, a bounce and a rolling count, so you can see the group fill up in real time instead of noticing the number later. ## Other fixes & improvements - Fixed photos being lost when the camera was closed right after tapping the shutter, or when the shutter was tapped twice in quick succession - Fixed sessions expiring early and leaving you stuck on "You are not authorized to view these photos" - Fixed an empty sheet and lost upgrades when raising the participant limit from a moment's edit screen, including edits being overwritten mid-typing - Fixed the blank photo filter sheet when filters failed to load - Fixed two App Clip crashes reported in 2.5.0, and the camera being left running behind other screens after a widget tap - Share screens for a brand-new moment now show its cover photo instead of a flat background - Added missing translations - Numerous stability improvements and polish

"Perfectly attuned to the iPhone" is the compliment I'll be thinking about all week. It's built natively for iOS rather than a website in a wrapper — invisible when it's done right, painfully obvious when it isn't. Thanks for noticing, and glad the photos turned out fun. Mickel
