Blurry Phone Photos Rectified

Who knew that the LifeProof waterproof iPhone case would create the blurriest phone photos due to the plastic cover over the camera lenses?

Everyone but me!

That’s right. It’s a thing. All over the Internet, reviews tell of this problem . The plastic cover on the phone back over the lenses gets all scratched and cannot be clear. Even if you are wiping with a microcloth meant for the task

There was one solution to the problem.

Remove it! The phone case is no longer leakproof, waterproof but I take phone photos in focus.

Here’s what I’m talking about

Photo on the left is blurry. Photo on right taken after plastic covering removed.

My case is no longer protecting my phone from water but my photos will be clear and in focus.
