iPhone 14 Pro macro-focus ruining Instagram Stories

Disabling Macro Control on Camera app works to avoid the camera switching to a very low quality camera for close-up shots. But on Instagram if you are recording for a example a boomerang which you cannot record on Camera app, and you focus an object (food or anything) that is close to the camera it switches the camera while recording and the result looks jumpy and with very bad quality.


Is there anything I can do? Or please consider it for following iOs updates.


Device: iPhone 14 Pro Max

I'm considering going back to iPhone 12 Pro Max just because of this, I heard this is also an issue on 13 Pro devices.
