iPhone 7 Plus is not switching to telephoto lens.

I searched about this on the web tried everything recommended as reset, trying at sunny weather outside but not working since updated to iOS 12, when i tap on the 1x button it changes to 2x and again to 1x that just happens less then a second.

IPhone 11 Pro wont switch to telephoto lens Hey there, covering the 2x lense and swapping to it within the camera app shows that it is simply using digital zoom and not switching cameras. Third party camera apps work with all three lenses fine. What’s with that?

Iphone 11 pro max Telephoto camera is not working properly In my iPhone 11 pro max, I am facing an issue with the Telephoto lens. When I was in photo mode on the camera app then switched from 1x to 2x the phone has to use the telephoto lens to achieve 2x in the camera app. instead it is using the software optical zoom to make 2x zoom. Please can you look into this issue. let me know if you need more details on this bug in the camera app.

My iPhone 12 is not giving me the option to use the telephoto lens I’ve been watching tutorials on how to use optical vs digital zoom to improve the quality of my photos. However, every tutorial says that when I open my camera app on my iPhone 12 (not pro), that in the Photo mode it will show me three options at once: .5x, 1x, and 3x. My camera does not show me those options. It shows 1x. When I tap it, it automatically zooms out to .5x. If I try holding it, it expands to show a wheel of zoom options, but those are all digital zoom. How do I guarantee the use of optical zoom with the telephoto lens if I don’t have the same options other iPhone users have. Is it an issue with the phone itself?
