iPhone doesn't focus - this helps

The cameras of the iPhones are among the best available on the cell phone market. However, when the device does not focus, all the pictures are blurry. Either there is a fault in the software or in the hardware.

What to do if iPhone camera doesn't focus?

To check if your autofocus really stops working, you should open Apple's camera app. Now tap anywhere to make the iPhone focus.

• If the picture remains blurred, the autofocus is probably broken. To be sure, however, you should try several apps with integrated camera, such as Snapchat or Instagram.
• First restart your iPhone once by long pressing the power button and turn it off. Then press and hold again until the Apple logo appears.
• Also, it may help to update your software to the latest version. With updates, many errors in the system are eliminated, which can trigger something like this.

Last hope: Hard Reset

Furthermore, you can perform a hard reset. This will erase all of your iPhone's data and settings. So first make a backup, then proceed as follows:

1. Open the "General" menu in the settings.
2. Then select "Reset" and tap "Erase all content & settings".
3. Confirm the process with "Erase device".

If the focus does not work even after that, you should contact Apple for repair. Depending on how old your iPhone is, the cost of the repair will probably be covered.
