The iPhone Camera Control gives you a surefire way to launch the camera. Even if you don’t use the myriad of controls it offers, you cannot deny that it gives you the quickest access to your iPhone’s camera.

That said, by default, it takes two presses to launch the camera if your iPhone’s display is off. The first press wakes up the iPhone, and the second press launches it.

In this guide, I will show you how to bypass the first step and launch the iPhone camera with a single press of Camera Control.
