I am using the iPhone 13 mini camera in Portrait mode, I adjusted the depth of field and took three images at a different aperture values : f/1.4, f/9 and f/16.
The data of the three images shows f 1.6. These do not represent the camera setups .
Is there anything wrong?
How can be fixed?
There is no way to set aperture on iPhones; you can use the different lenses (each with a different f stop) but the lenses will use their native aperture. So nothing is wrong. The app may display a "virtual f/" but that is AI, not actual.

Yes, that is exactly what I mean. You can check your phone's specs and see the fixed apertures for each lens.
The portrait mode uses AI to simulate different apertures but it is not like a real camera where you can set the aperture.

Thank you for your prompt reply.
Do you mean that under the portrait mode, the f symbol and dial are only "fake" buttons?
Again, Thank you for your prompt replies.
I was wrong in assuming that the iPhone would be fully manual camera.
Thanks for sharing your information.
Well received,
