If you face some of the above issues, resulting in your iPhone camera constantly refocusing, you should first clean your cameras. Using a microfiber cloth to prevent damage to the lenses, give both the front and back cameras a quick wipe-down to see if it eliminates the issue. Another simple solution is to increase the lighting in the area or change the angle of your picture. Poor lighting can easily impede a camera’s focus, and the problem can continue if there are many moving things in the background, preventing an iPhone camera from focusing on one or two subjects.
Similarly, cases, external lenses, or other accessories could confuse your camera, preventing it from focusing. Try removing any you have on your iPhone and see if the issue persists. If it does, it’s likely a software issue causing the problem. In that case, fall back to the age-old solution of restarting your iPhone or force restarting it if it’s frozen, which ensures every component inside the device turns off and back on. You should also check if you have the latest iOS update installed, as Apple could have patched the software bug plaguing your phone with its latest update.
