Blue tint on Camera app on iPhone 17 Pro

Hi guys,


Hoping that you can help me with a recent issue I’ve encountered on my 17 Pro


When I take a photo through the camera app via the standard back camera the screen has a really cold blue tint to it, only rectified by switching to video and back to photo, or changing lens and back.


It applies to the photo itself too if it’s taken without switching it up.


I’m not sure what the root cause is and it’s becoming quite annoying / ruining shots if I don’t catch it


Any Ideas?

iPhone 17 Pro, iOS 26

Expressing or conveying visual experiences effectively through these forums may be challenging. The underlying visual issue on your iPhone cannot be accurately diagnosed online. Factors such as your iPhone's specific settings, visual defects, and potential hardware problems cannot be assessed through this method. For more personalized and in-depth assistance, I recommend securing a Genius Bar Reservation and exploring the various support options provided by Apple.

When you encounter issues with your Apple devices, the Genius Bar at Apple Retail Stores is the go-to place for expert assistance. The Genius Bar is staffed by knowledgeable Apple employees, often referred to as "Geniuses," who can diagnose and resolve a wide range of hardware and software-related problems. To ensure personalized attention and a convenient visit, Apple provides the option to schedule a Genius Bar Reservation.
