Hello,

may I ask you please.. If it's normal when I tap the screen, where I want to manaully focus, the square is just blinking? I am worried that maybe my ultra wide camera does not work. I can not google it to be honest.

Thank you very much in advance.

I can only get my camera to blinking when I press screen quickly, if I push and hold on the subject the square will stop blinking and manually focus fine. Give that a try.

It's normal when I am on my normal main camera, but after switching into the ultra wide (0,5x) and tap the object that I want to focus.. it acts like this:

The UW has fixed focus, could that be the reason?

Mine also does that.
There’s a DP Review article that says the iPhone 11 UW lens is fixed focus only: link
But I haven’t found anything similar about the 12.
