I have been having issue lately getting my camera to focus on an entire image when it’s text. Like, I make a list on a sheet of paper and it only focuses on part of it and the bottom is always blurry. I have cleaned the camera, restarted my phone (including a full reset), checked the apps, googled to no avail. Any tips or advise to what I am missing?
iPhone 7, iOS 13
Hey lizzy218,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities! I understand you have some questions about your iPhone camera.
I want to share the resource below with you, as it goes over the multiple camera modes. A lot of times different images, and lighting work better with a specific camera mode.
Use camera modes on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
You can also find some great information about camera settings here: Use the camera settings on iPhone
Thanks again, and have a great day!

As suggested above, you likely accidentally change the camera mode from Photo to Portrait. Portrait mode has very shallow field of focus. Please double check.
FYI. If you launch the Notes app, the keyboard has a camera button with an option to Scan Documents. This takes a photo of your document, but also helps you in focusing and framing the document.
My camera is still having focus issue. It will focus on a person or a single object but it won’t do a wide focus anymore
I have an iPhone 7. My phone does not have Portrait mode. It’s not just documents it’s like a wall of food at the super market. It’s becoming more and more things with my back facing camera.
