New Apple Film Shows How iPhone's Action Mode Empowers People With Parkinson's [Video]

Apple has released a new short film entitled "No Frame Missed," showcasing how the iPhone's camera technology and accessibility features can empower individuals with Parkinson's disease to capture important moments in their lives. The film highlights the experiences of three people, using the iPhone's Action mode to overcome the challenges that tremors can present when filming.

The video features Brett Harvey, a filmmaker who can no longer use professional cameras due to his tremors, as well as Ellen Victoria and Bette W. They share how the simple act of recording memories has become difficult. For Harvey, Action mode allows him to film his young son's first bike ride, something he thought he wouldn't be able to do. The film demonstrates the feature's stabilization with side-by-side comparisons of shaky and smooth footage.


The short film also highlights how other built-in tools can help. Voice Control is featured as a way to operate the camera and navigate the iPhone hands-free, which is part of a broader suite of accessibility features Apple continues to expand. The company notes that the individuals in the film were commissioned to share their stories.

Action mode is available on iPhone 14 models and later.
