Use the following iPhone XS camera troubleshooting tips below, or hurry into a CPR store near you.
Why Is My iPhone XS Camera Not Working?
While some iPhone XS camera issues– like a cracked lens– are evident, others are far more complex and are due to software glitches. If your iPhone XS or iPhone XS Max camera is broken or malfunctioning, use the following guide to pinpoint the problem and fix it on your own. Alternatively, visit a CPR Cell Phone Repair near you for same-day iPhone repair service.
Troubleshooting the iPhone XS Max or iPhone XS Camera
Before you opt for an iPhone XS camera replacement, try using these basic tips to fix your malfunctioning camera.
Remove Case and Accessories
Whether your rear camera or front camera is malfunctioning, the first step to troubleshooting is removing all accessories, including phone cases, protective films, and attachments. Frequently, users don’t realize that their phones’ accessories are blocking the camera or flash. Once the accessories are removed, open the camera app again and try taking a photo.
Inspect Your Screen
If your front camera is acting up or out of focus, take a closer look at your display or screen protector. If there is a scratch or crack over the front camera, that is likely the culprit behind your camera malfunction. Fortunately, fixing the device is as simple as dropping it off at CPR Cell Phone Repair for an iPhone screen repair.
Clean Lens
If your photos have spots or are turning out blurry and out of focus, try cleaning your iPhone XS camera lens. To do so, wipe the camera lens with a microfiber cloth to remove smudges, fingerprints, and dirt.
Restart Your iPhone
If your iPhone XS camera lens appears to be closed or your camera app is simply showing a black screen, try restarting the iPhone. To restart an iPhone XS, hold the down volume button and side button until a slider appears. Drag the slider to power off the device and wait about 30 seconds. To turn the device back on, hold down the side button again until you see the device power on. Once powered on, revisit the camera app.
Update Your Software
Ensure that you’re using the most up-to-date version of iOS software. Often, Apple releases updates that fix minor bugs in the camera software.
