iPhone 7 Plus telephoto camera not working

Im having this same issue. I heard from someone that it might not work untill the next software update... but I have no idea and haven't found anything to help online. If someone else knows people comment.

it only works in bright conditions. and that the focus point may not be too close.

try it outdoors and with an object that is farther away. I hope things work out! write when you tried

I noticed the same issue until I came here and read Wallen83's reply. I tried facing the camera to a ceiling light and it switched automatically to the telephoto camera then i covered the telephoto camera again and a second later it switched back to the wide angle camera until i removed my finger.

Thank you so much for your help Wallen83.

I Have just done the "test" you have mentioned and can assure you mine works as it should.

maybe look at doing a forced reset? Or fresh iOS install..
