Iphone 13 Camera Troubles?

The auto switching to the wide lens occur when you are closer than the minimum distance for the normal lens. You can shut off the switch to the wide lens, but if you are closer than the minimum focus distance for the normal lens, your subject will be out of focus.

The first thing to check when your camera's auto focus fails, is that you have your DSLR lens set on AF (auto focus) and not MF (Manual Focus). This may seem obvious, however there have been many times when I've used manual focus and forgot to change it back to auto focus when required.

There are several reasons why the camera on an iPhone 13 may not be focusing properly, even after auto focusing. Here are some possible causes and solutions:

1. Camera lens is dirty: The camera lens may be dirty or smudged, which can prevent the camera from focusing properly. Try cleaning the lens with a microfiber cloth or a lens cleaning solution.
2. Camera app settings: Make sure that the camera settings are set to auto focus. Go to the Camera app and check the settings to ensure that the camera is set to auto focus and not manual focus.
3. Camera lens is damaged: If the lens is cracked or damaged, the camera may not be able to focus properly. In this case, you may need to have the camera repaired or replaced.
4. Software issues: Sometimes, software issues such as bugs or glitches can cause the camera to malfunction. Try updating the iPhone's software to the latest version to see if that resolves the issue.
5. Third party apps: Some third-party camera apps may cause the camera to malfunction, try to close the app, or remove it and use the native camera app.
6. Hardware issues: In rare cases, hardware issues such as a malfunctioning camera module, may cause the camera to not focus properly. If you have tried all of the above solutions and the issue persists, you may need to contact Apple or an authorized repair center for further assistance.

It's important to note that all the above solutions are general and some may not apply to your specific case, but by trying them one by one you can resolve the issue.
