Iphone 6+ won't focus when taking photos?

Hi! So I got my iPhone 6+ on Christmas Day and around February time the camera completely stopped focussing. I've tapped on the screen before taking photos, reset it (turning it off and on again because I don't want to erase anything on here) I've tried everything and nothing seems to work. The camera only seems to focus when I take a photo that's at an exact distance (around 30cm away from the camera) everything else appears blurred. When I take photos everything is unfocused and blurry which bothers me because I had the phone for like two months before the focus stopped working. I smashed it about a month ago so if I take it back to Apple they won't serve me because they'll blame it on the smash. What can I do?

Well you smashed it as you said, so obviously its related.

You smashed your phone and now you're wondering why the photos are blurred?

Tap and hold on your focus point until you see the "AE/AF option.

If its not that which is doing it then your phone is done and needs replacing.

YOU broke your phone. YOU pay to have it fixed or replaced. That's the way things work in real life.

Understand the camera quit focusing then later you smashed it. Want to make the obvious point you should learn from this, take care of the problem when you have it (like last February), then Apple would have had to honor its warranty.

In the meantime, try what Landshark said.

  • Why won't my iPhone 4s camera focus? So I've tried everything to try and make it focus. I tapped it with my finger, sort of smashed it on the table, I've had a look to see if the plastic is covering it, I've tapped to focus, and I hold it really far from the lens, like really far, and it never decides to focus. I don't know what to do. I think I might need to change my phone. Does anyone have any advice?
  • Why won't my iPhone 4 camera focus? Every time I go to take a photo of my nails on my phone the camera is really blurry and won't focus. The camera is not dirty and it used to work perfectly fine before. The front camera works fine how it did before its just the back camera that's playing up. How can I get my back camera to work again?
  • Why won't my back camera focus on any text? I have a iPhone 5s with iOS 8. It won't let me focus on a sheet of paper with text or anything. I tap the screen lots but it doesn't help, please help me.
