How to Get Visual Intelligence on iPhone 15 Pro

On iPhone 16 models, Visual Intelligence lets you use the camera to learn more about places and objects around you. It can also summarize text, read text out loud, translate text, search Google for items, ask ChatGPT, and more. And thanks to iOS 18.4, currently in beta, iPhone 15 Pro models can get in on the action, too.

Until recently, ‌Visual Intelligence‌ was a feature limited to iPhone 16 models with a Camera Control button, which was necessary to activate the feature. However, Apple in February debuted the iPhone 16e, which lacks Camera Control and yet supports Visual Intelligence. This is because the device ships with a version of iOS that includes Visual Intelligence as an assignable option to the device's Action button.

Apple has since confirmed that the same Visual Intelligence customization setting would be coming to iPhone 15 Pro models via a software update. That update is iOS 18.4, which is set to be released in early April and is available in public beta.

Maybe you've installed iOS 18.4 beta on your iPhone 15 Pro, or maybe you're waiting for the final release. Either way, in iOS 18.4 you can assign Visual Intelligence to the device's Action button in the following way.

1. Open Settings on your iPhone 15 Pro.
2. Tap Action Button.
3. Swipe to Visual Intelligence.

Pressing and holding the Action button will now activate Visual Intelligence. Note that you can also activate Visual Intelligence using the new button option in Control Center. Here's how.

1. Swipe down from the top-right corner of your iPhone's display, then long press on the Control Center.
2. Tap Add a Control at the bottom.
3. Use the search bar at the top to search for Visual Intelligence, or swipe up to the "Apple Intelligence" section and choose the button.
4. Tap the screen to exit the Control Center's edit mode.

Using Visual Intelligence

The Visual Intelligence interface features a view from the camera, a button to capture a photo, and dedicated "Ask" and "Search" buttons. Ask queries ChatGPT, and Search sends an image to Google Search.

When using Visual Intelligence you can either snap a photo using the shutter button and then select an option, or you can select an option in live camera view. You cannot use photos that you took previously.
