Yellow/blue streaks pictures

Yes me too - only thing that works for me is turning off hdr in camera - so far that works as I do t see those lines yet

I can confirm that it does indeed seems to have been fixed in 13.3.1.

This is from 13.3:

This one is from 13.3.1.

I had the same issue! I fixed it by turning off the smart HDR in the camera settings. Hope this helps!

Heyy! Just turn the smart HDR off in the camera settings! Hope this helps!

Mine too but i tried turning off the hdr in the settings and it works, but i hope apple will fix this issue on the next software update.

I have had the exact same issue. Have tried wiping the phone, doesn't work. So far, disabling Smart HDR and HDR has fixed the problem.

However.... I bought this phone because I take a lot of pictures, and I have actually ended up using my Google Pixel which was cheaper and takes far better, issue free images.

1. I expect to be able to use this device fully, I am not able to. I don't expect this from Apple products and if I don't see a swift remedy on this from Apple, I will be returning this less than 1.5 year old handset back for a full refund (Consumer Rights Act 2015 (UK)) as it is not fit for purpose and Apple do not appear to have addressed this issue or provided any proper fix for it.

1. Secondly, I have stacks of images with these streaks which I am unable to remove from the image rendering them spoiled. Again, this is not what I expect from an Apple product. My issues started in October, at the same sort of time this thread was raised, this shouldn't be an issue, this needs to have been addressed by now.

WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN RECTIFIED APPLE?

Hello Sranvalsi and every Xr User. I too have this issue and love this iPhone camera yet experience the camera issue of lines with HDR under certain conditions 😒😡👎🏻 which is completely UNACCEPTABLE even if it’s a flaw in their software which their millions of software developers should be looking at ! I have been able to use HDR without issues but only daytime. Night time I can sometimes get HDR to work fine but a good part of time I turn off HDR. Additionally I’ve gotten smart HDR to work during the day and it’s well pretty great. After much time and research I’ve found that it happens typically for me with LED lighting and florescent lighting. Both types of lighting are particularly bad for pictures. On a side note I bought some camera gear that will really improve and increase the iPhone XR camera’s photo capabilities and unlock camera potential! After using it can really rival the 11’s camera quality when used properly. Telephoto lense by Sandmarc includes iPhone case with camera mount, lense covers and pouch, plus a camera adapter for your own case. The price is 100$ . Best quality and price! Highly recommended by EMT on Youtube and other you tubers. I love mine and my skepticism was obliterated after using it for a month. 2nd item: hybrid Filters (130$) really help with the polarization and excessive / bad exposure , lighting, and poor saturation in iPhone pictures. I use them and combined with the iPhone editing software you can make remarkable pictures. Ps. These filters can screw onto the lenses they have. Lastly on behalf of all Xr users with this issue. I posted this tweet and Apple support responded.

without hybrid filters shot on XR

Using hybrid filters and some editing (minor) the filters help bring out the clouds and lost details due to over exposure and dull colors. ND64/PL.

I just got back from the Apple store after doing an entire reinstall of iOS 13. Nothing works. Turning off HDR fixes the issue for me but that should NOT be accepted. This SUCKS. COME ON APPLE

I think it is software related so unless the factory reset has a software patch there will be the same issue. They told me to do the same thing but someone else said it did t fix the issue. I have turned off the hdr in camera settings until there is a patch or fix

The wipe doesn’t work or at least didn’t for me which leads me to believe that it’s in the software and they didn’t fix it. It didn’t happen to me until the iOS 13 so how could it be the camera? Plus it would happen on every picture not just some of them. I have HDR turned on but I also have save original - it is only on the HDR photos. At least on my XR it is.

Just tried taking a low light photo before the update, stated in exactly the same place and updated then took same photo. Looks like it’s fixed! I wonder why apple haven’t put it in the upgrade notes though?

I just updated to iOS 13.3.1

I took some photos, and for the moment I am no longer experiencing the problem. I hope it's not a placebo effect! Try to update.

Is your iPhone fully updated? A new update just came out like a week ago. Everything is fixed on my end.

I'm having the same problem with my XR. After working with chat support, they are saying camera is not the problem - software issue. My next step from them is to reinstall iOS from a backup and see if the problem persists. (Based on this forum I am not holding my breath for this being the fix.)

This gets more and more frustrating!! Really Apple? How many people have to reset their phones, have cameras replaced, phones replaced, before they realize its totally software they need to fix. The so-called "work around" only lowers the number of times it happens, but it still happens! Ruining thousands (if not more) of their users images. I for one will not even bother going to a Genius bar until they admit to everyone it's a software issue they need to fix. I turned my HDR off in the camera app just to see, took one shot, and immediately the first photo was heavy with yellow and blue stripes!! Turn it off again and took same shot. No lines. But it still happens, just not as often. I think thats worse!! No telling when it will ruin a photo. You can't get some of those moments back. This needs addressed immediately!

Apple, you have growing number of upset customers, please pay attention and do something!!
