iPhone owners are just realizing common ‘shoot’ setting is ruining your photos – three taps fix it

PHOTOS taken on your iPhone may not be of the highest potential quality if a certain setting is turned on.

The iPhone setting is meant to be useful but isn’t needed at all times.

The Prioritize Faster Shooting camera setting tells the iPhone to adapt the quality of images when you're shooting fast

The iPhone camera has a setting called Prioritize Faster Shooting which makes sure you get the shot if you're clicking to take photos quickly.

It does this by “freeing up the buffer to allow it to focus on shooting more in a short space of time,” explained.

But the Prioritize Faster Shooting camera setting tells the iPhone to adapt the quality of images when you're shooting fast to do so.

It uses the phone's power to process the image instead of putting it towards the picture quality.

It is recommended to turn off Prioritize Faster Shooting when you don’t need it so that the camera can focus solely on the quality of the picture

You can change this setting in three easy taps.

You just need to tap settings, then camera, which will lead you to a screen to toggle off Prioritize Faster Shooting.

It is recommended to turn it back on if you know you’re about to take some quick-fire action shots.

You can turn it back on by following the same steps to turn it off.

But if you know that quality is the most important aspect at the moment, make sure to turn it off – it’ll be worth it and will only take seconds.
