#auto #enhance #iphone
On the newer iPhone, the iOS automatically auto enhance your photos. However, this can sometime distort or make image look bad and you might want to turn off the auto enhance feature. In this video we show you few different ways to turn off the auto enhance feature on your iPhone so you photos are raw without auto edits.

It's so sad seeing a photo that could've been great turn into a weird bleached mess 2 seconds after I touch on the photo. My skin is black so they automatically brighten the skin tone, making it look washed out, bleached, and dried. Apple is very weird for that. It's probably a machine trained algorithm that hasn't gotten a lot of testing on *a variety of* skin tones. Sigh

One thing i have figured out (which is very sad that you actually have to figure it out) is that when you take the picture there is about a second where the picture is in its “normal” state. If you are fast enough you can screenshot this picture and then boom. You have the picture without it being absolutely bleached.

This feature so annoying!!! Thank you for your suggestions. It is absolutely ridiculous that we have to go through this just to avoid the automatic edit! Not all of us are idiots that need help editing or "improving" our photos. I am an artist and I want what I want both when I am photographing the landscape and when I photograph my work. Apple needs to do better!

It’s ridiculous that we have to go through all that just to temporarily fix that auto enhancement. I paid so much for a phone that does this. No control over my own phone. Apple needs to get it together. Thank you so much for this helpful video.

The last one is the only one that worked for me. It’s such a stupid feature. They should allow us to turn it off. Thanks for sharing solutions.

Got an iPhone a few months back after not having an Apple phone for years. Got it specifically for the great camera. I noticed this effect happening almost immediately and thought it was just something I needed to switch off. When it kept happening, making my pics look really bad, I investigated and could not believe it couldn’t be turned off! Insane that this company would ship out phones with this feature! Is it a ploy to make you buy a third party camera app? What is also shocking is NOBODY it seems is talking about this issue, apart from this video. How can nobody have noticed this?

EDIT: I now use the Halide third-part camera app, it still does the same bleach thing to your pic but you can revert it back to normal by clicking one button, which is what Apple should allow you to do.

it’s a horrible feature and we should have the option to toggle it off.

i would like to suggest 2 more solutions :

1) take the photo while filming a video (4k 60fps for the best quality)
2) take the photo using a third party app. i like to use lightroom and it’s great and easy to control !

i love to take pictures of the moon so either option is great because otherwise it’s impossible for the photo camera to focus on it. and on the rare occasion it does manage to focus, it ends up ruining the picture thanks to this feature.

i don’t mind it when i use the iphone camera but i can’t even take a good instagram story anymore… i want my slightly dark and grainy pic back😭 (none of this tips worked for me so i guess im stuck)

settings>camera> use volume up for burst> switch on. when you take photos with the burst it doesn't apply the filter 😊

It ruins every single photo what the hell is this shi

[ekansoong]

Exactly what I was looking for! Just upgraded to the 15 and hated all the auto corrections. Thank you!

APPLE NEEDS TO ALLOW US TO TURN OFF THIS DUMB FUNCTION, it’s ruining All of the colors of the original pic!!! Add it to the next update Apple!

“Hey guys you can’t actually turn on off the auto enhance, it’s built into the hardware”

🤦🏻‍♂️

[williamfranco]

Everytime I take a picture of myself. It looks great and then automatically brightens it like 1 second after I’m looking at the pic . I hate this and can’t figure out how to change it

[celinegroenewald]

I also noticed the over exposure on my photos immediately after taking it and nobody seemed to believe me they thought I was crazy for pointing it out 😢 I really do not like over exposed photos

[magnificentmaggie]

I FIXED IT. So what you need to do is instead of clicking the white photo button, swipe it to the left. When you do this is takes the video on burst and the enhanced photo feature thing won’t be applied

Glad someone is talking about it, I thought I'm the only one going through this as I searched everywhere and nobody's giving a damn and even I too bought my iPhone 14 a week earlier and now imma sad😭I look worst in my photos

[ericasanchez]

I’ve been looking everywhere on the internet for other people having this issue, I absolutely couldn’t find anyone experiencing it but me. Thankfully I found this video and it really helped!!

The same thing is happening to me, I'm about to sell my iPhone 13 because the photos are just horrible, the auto enhance ruins the final image and the worst of al... this can't be deactivated, everything is plasticized, yellowish and looks fake, without shadows. The other huge problem with this iPhone is the fact that the screen has that yellow tint that doesn't go away even with TrueTone disabled... pff, it's disappointing paying so much for a product this bad. I'll go back to the iPhone 7 or 8.

you could also screenshot the photo before the filter is applied 😅 i really wish apple had an option to turn off this feature. it makes the photos look so weird
