Camera Switching Bug in iOS 27 and 27.1 on iPhone 18 Pro: Ultra-Wide to Main Camera Glitch

Bug Report: Camera Switching Issue in iOS 27 and 27.1 – iPhone 18 Pro

Device: iPhone 18 Pro

iOS Version: iOS 27 / iOS 27.1

Issue: Ultra-Wide to Main Camera Switching Bug

Description of the Issue:

I am experiencing a camera-related bug on my iPhone 18 Pro after updating to iOS 27 and 27.1. The issue occurs in both the native Camera app and Snapchat.

When I switch from the Ultra-Wide (0.5x) camera to the Main (1x) camera, the main camera starts behaving like the Ultra-Wide camera. This causes a noticeable glitch in the camera output, resulting in reduced image quality, lower pixel resolution, and a blurry appearance, particularly when using Snapchat.

Steps to Reproduce:

Open the Camera app or Snapchat.

Switch to the Ultra-Wide (0.5x) camera.

Switch back to the Main (1x) camera.

Observe the camera glitch, reduced image quality, and blurry output.

Expected Behaviour: The Main camera should switch back to its normal 1x mode and deliver its full image quality without any distortion or loss of resolution.

Actual Behaviour: After switching from Ultra-Wide to Main, the Main camera appears to behave like the Ultra-Wide camera, resulting in blurry images and reduced pixel quality.

Requested Action:

Please investigate and fix this camera-switching bug in iOS 27 and 27.1. The issue affects both the native Camera app and Snapchat, significantly impacting the camera experience and image quality.
