I tried different settings and also cleared the camera app but still the same. It seems that the third party app doesnt automatically switch to the Macro Camera to do the close up photos.

Blurry After Editing I've seen this in a few postings with no real resolution so I figured I'd bring it up again. After editing photos (RAW in this case) in Photos we're seeing that pictures appear blurry when viewing them, but clear up if you go back into Edit them. As soon as you click "Done" after editing, the photo is blurred again. Any tips on how to fix this? If none, what other photo management/light editing tools do you recommend? Based on the posts I'm seeing, this issue goes back at least 2 years and I've not yet seen a suggestion that works.
