iOS 26 has transformed with the launch of a new full-screen preview for screenshots captured on your device. This updated configuration is designed to provide you with straightforward access to the device’s array of Apple Intelligence-driven image capabilities, encompassing Visual Look Up and visual intelligence.
While these functionalities can be useful, particularly when you’re seeking details on whatever you’re capturing, the reality is that many of us do not need them every single time we take a screenshot. Therefore, this full-screen preview merely introduces an additional step to the screenshot-taking process, which could serve as an unnecessary obstacle for numerous users. Fortunately, reverting to the previous mode is simple, as your iPhone’s screenshots used to show as a small thumbnail in the bottom corner that users could tap to enlarge.
