It was rumored back in June that Apple would pack a panoramic camera option inside iOS 5, but the feature didn’t make the latest version of the operating system. However, using a clever hack, you can add panoramic mode to your iPhone’s camera, 9to5Mac reports.
All you need is a jailbroken iPhone loaded with iOS 5 and the “Firebreak” software from Cydia installed, the blog said. Once it’s downloaded, open the camera app, tap the screen, and more settings will pop up. From here, the panorama button should appear. Simply click it, and you can take panoramic photos.
If don’t wish to jailbreak your iPhone, there is an array of panorama mode apps available in the App Store.
Apple’s iOS 5 added a few features to the iPhone camera such as a simple built-in editor, a camera button from the home screen, and the ability to snap a photo using a volume button on the side of the phone. The camera on the iPhone 4S got a big upgrade, too. Apple’s latest iPhone includes an 8-megapixel camera and 1080p HD video recording.
The upgraded OS hasn’t launched without a slight controversy, however. Apple last week confirmed that there is a bug in iOS 5 that drains the battery on some iPhones.
“A small number of customers have reported lower than expected battery life on iOS 5 devices,” Apple said in a statement. “We have found a few bugs that are affecting battery life and we will release a software update to address those in a few weeks.”
