Blue line on back camera

I have a vertical blue line that only appears when using the back camera. Worked fine yesterday afternoon and just noticed the issue this morning.


from my knowledge my phone hasn’t been dropped or anything like that.


turned phone on and off. And messed with the settings with no fixes.

You can try a clean install of your device after a factory reset:


First make sure you have a backup

Then factory reset your device:

Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support


And set it up without a backup. See if the issue persists.


If it still does not work it is a hardware issue and will need service:


If that solved it there was a software issue. Try restoring the backup and see if it still works.

if that made the problem come back the backup is the problem


Good luck!
