On the airplane I had the phone stuck against the window still no dice also tried pressing the screen on something else like the condensation on window. Your advice works most of the time however. CheersThe iPhone is focusing on the water droplets on the window as it’s closest to the camera. You’ll have to “touch to focus” where you want the camera to focus precisely, if you haven’t already during this set. Or move the camera closer to the window to where the camera ignores the water droplets. Just raising the camera and taking the photo, the iPhone will always focus on the closest objects to the camera first unless you force it to focus elsewhere.
