What I Found
A practical look at using the iPhone Action Button to open different camera apps depending on how the phone is held.
One of the more useful things I have been testing with the iPhone Action Button is using it as a shortcut for camera work instead of just assigning it to one fixed app.
The basic idea is simple: set up the iPhone Action Button so it opens a different camera app based on the phone’s orientation. When the phone is held one way, the button opens one app. When it is held another way, it opens a different app.
