How to use Visual Intelligence on an iPhone 16 to identify unknown objects

Using Visual Intelligence, you can also dig up details on public places, such as businesses, stores, restaurants, supermarkets, and museums. Depending on the business, you should be able to find the hours of operation, services offered, and contact information. With restaurants, supermarkets, and other places, you can also make reservations, order items, and request deliveries. This option works only in the US and only if you’re in front of the actual place.
To try this, press down on the Camera Control and aim your phone at the building. Any text seen in the image should appear at the top of the screen. Tap that text or tap the white circle. A card pops up with the name, hours, and other information. For a restaurant or supermarket, you’ll also see Order and Delivery icons to order items or have them delivered. Tap the ellipsis icon for more options, such as contacting the business or launching its website.
