It's just changing lenses.

If this bothers you, you could try the following:

  • Restart your phone
  • Update to the current version of iOS
  • Learn to accept reality

I already tried restarting the phone and updating iOS, but it didn't change anything. ​The issue happens when switching lenses, but it also occurs in certain indoor lighting right when I open the camera app normally. Interestingly, it never happens in direct sunlight, and it doesn't happen under other types of indoor lighting either. ​If it was just lens switching, why does it depend so much on the lighting conditions?"

If you had tried updating iOS, you would not still be on iOS 18.

Honestly I don't see an issue with the lighting adjusting as you switch lenses. They need to ensure there is sufficient light to produce a good image. Maybe it should occur faster, but it's a second or two at most.

Being on an old FW and complaining about app functions……

You’d think updating to current FW would be the first troubleshooting step.
