How to fix overexposure issues on iPhone 14 Pro Max Photos?

I have the same issue; turning off the View Full HDR does not help. I contacted Apple to confirm that it is a known issue. Full call was over 30 minutes. They suggested Settings>Camera> turn on Preserve Settings, which did not help. The tips she had as a resource for this known issue also suggested adjusting exposure, which I had already done, and as we all know, does not change that burst of light that happens. Connected me to a senior advisor after those steps. I chose the step to get a new phone and I'll update with a reply to this post once I get that new phone.

I’ve found a temporary way to fix my pictures. Usually I just turn on live then go back to the picture I have taken, edit the live and choose a different frame of the picture to make as the key photo and then the exposure will go away in the picture once clicked done.

Also not sure what to do besides turning HDR off in settings.

My phone , it does to my raw pictures too. I have to go to edit and press the auto enhance on and off to reveal the raw resolution. So def a software problem. They have to fix this. False advertisement lol never seen my lips that cracked up

turned off “full HDR view”

Actually what made it SLIGHTLY better was to m sale up I was update to current version of iOS s it didn’t come with the latest and to turn HDR off. Still hate it but a little better.

i tried this thing where instead of using the shutter button to take selfies, i just took a screenshot with the up volume button and power button and cropped it. it looks good!

I have been searching for a solution and I went into settings > photos > view full HDR. The HDR is on, I turned it OFF. I haven't determined if this is the actual solution as of yet.

How to make your skin texture look better on iPhone 14

1. Go to the Settings app.

2. Scroll down to Photos.

3. Turn off View Full HDR.

The same for video deactivate HDR

mine Is awful too. I made an appointment with the Apple Store and they didn’t know how to help either. I’ve been trying different things and this is what has worked for me so far.

you can change the exposure level of the picture before you take it. For me, I had to increase mine to 1.3 or even 1.7 for it to look normal to me. When the camera is open you can do this in the left hand corner or from the settings of the camera. Then in the settings, you can make it save your preference so you don’t have to do it each time. It will save the preference you used last until you change it again.

I have no idea if this is actually good advice, but it’s just what I’ve discovered on my own through trial and error. I definitely can tolerate the camera more now… even though I feel like it’s still horrible that it’s like this in comparison with my old iPhones.

Mine is. AWFUL! It looks so good in the view port and as soon as you take the photo it auto edits it to look terrible! Overly sharp, overly contrasted, desaturated, grainy, etc. They need to fix this because the camera is unusable. Don't even get me. started on the front camera... it doesn't even look like me

I ended up getting a replacement during Genius Bar appointment. They tried everything (ran many tests, reset a bunch of things, etc) and nothing showed there was a problem or improved things. I must have gotten a defective unit.

So we are all agree that this is a huge problem!

Different comments pointing out same issues when we talk about photos:

• Horrible HDR post processing
• Insane over exposure
• Extreme sharpening
• Super grainy and desaturated
• Awful contrast and lighting

On my side I think that buying a 1TB iPhone and shooting 48MP RAW isn't the solution nor turning off Full HDR View, I mean this should work flawless just out of the box.

I'm looking forward to any iOS updates (literally checking more than ten times a day) because this should be fixed.

Please raise your hand if you are having this same issue, we need a solution.

I WISH I NEVER SWITCHED FROM ME IPHONE12promax to the 14promax,

both cameras are terrible the quality is awful, the selfie camera looks pixelated!!! I genuinely want my money back is not worth it at all’!!!! DO NOT BUY!!!

I have the 13 Pro and the front camera does exactly the same. It looks fine when you take a picture for just a second but then applies a horrible filter that makes you extremely sharp and orange. I tried the 14 Pro camera as well at the shop but it also was horrible so I stayed away. It s a shame that Apple allowed this to happen😢
