Apple has just released a touching short film showcasing how the iPhone is making a difference for people with movement disorders, specifically Parkinson’s disease, by enabling them to capture stable videos. Titled No Frame Missed, the film features three individuals living with Parkinson’s who share how the iPhone’s Action mode has helped them preserve special moments and a sense of normalcy in their lives.
Brett Harvey received his Parkinson’s diagnosis six years ago at the age of 37, while Ellen Victoria and Bette W. have been living with the condition for a decade. In the film, all three express the joy and hope that recording videos with the iPhone’s Action mode has brought them.
The film not only captures the personal stories of Brett, Ellen, and Victoria but also emphasizes the invaluable contribution that the iPhone and its Accessibility Features make to individuals living with disabilities and their families. The video is a powerful five-minute watch.
The key features of the iPhone showcased in the film are the Camera’s Action mode and Voice Control. Action mode was introduced with the iPhone 14 nearly three years ago, initially aimed at capturing smooth videos while in motion, such as walking or jogging. No Frame Missed highlights how Action mode has become a crucial tool for individuals with Parkinson’s and similar conditions.
To activate Action mode on your iPhone 14 or newer model, simply open the Camera app, switch to Video mode, and tap on the Action mode icon (depicted as a running person) to enable it.
Additionally, the iPhone’s Accessibility Feature, Voice Control, allows the film’s subjects to operate their phone’s camera. For instance, Brett can be seen using voice commands like “tap action” and “tap record” to initiate Action mode and capture moments like his son Dexter riding a bike. Brett, a writer, director, and editor, notes that Action mode surpasses traditional stabilization methods he has used in the past.
