iPhone 5S-- Yellow tint problem

Hi there MrsLynx,

I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.

Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality

1. If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
2. If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
3. Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
4. Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
5. Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
6. Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
7. Try to remain steady while focusing:
   • Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
     Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
   • Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
     Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
8. If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.

Issue not resolved

My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?

Contact Apple Support.

You may also want to verify that no filters are being applied while taking the picture.

Apply a filter: (iPhone 4s or later) Tap to apply different color effects, such as black & white. To turn off a filter, tap , then tap None. You can also apply a filter later, when you edit the photo.

The iPhone User Guide has more information

I fixed my yellow pics on my 5s. open your camera app. Most times the photo sign is highlighted, now hit your 3 colored circles and a multiple screen will come up, I hit the fade button and then take my pics. what a difference, real colors and the yellow is gone. so far the screen seems to be locked in fade till you would pick another screen. hope it helps

I have also had this issue. easy fix... thanks.

Excellent advice. The problem is almost completely solved using the fade screen under the three color cicles. I found that using the "none" screen for outside pictures gives a somwhat better color representation than using the "fade screen". The yellow color is apparently related to the amount and color temperature of the available light.

WOW! Easy fix - thank you so much!

Thank you so much!

This was the only suggestion that has worked... now I can actually enjoy my camera on my new phone!
