How to fix blurry and slow flash on iPhone 17 camera for portraits and selfies?

I have a problem with my iPhone 17 camera, it’s very blurry for portraits and selfies in general, I tried everything on YouTube and even if I keep disabling and enabling a lot of settings it’s still very bad blurry and grainy. Also the flash light takes forever to shoot. Please help I don’t know what to do

From your description it sounds like you are trying to shoot in a very low light condition. Try taking a photo outdoors during the day or in a brightly lit room.
