What is the macro mode on iPhones?<\/h2>\n

The macro mode lets you shoot subjects up close using your iPhone without needing an external lens. It uses the Ultra Wide lens to capture sharp and detailed photos and videos of subjects as close as 2 centimeters from the lens.<\/p>\n

This feature is great for shooting textures on leaves, insects, jewelry, food, or any tiny details you want to highlight. The Camera app automatically switches to macro mode when it detects you are close to a subject, but you can also control it manually if your iPhone has the option.<\/p>\n

Which iPhones support macro mode?<\/h2>\n

Macro mode isn\u2019t available on all iPhone models; only iPhones with an Ultra Wide camera can shoot in macro. <\/p>\n

Back when it was introduced with the iPhone 13 Pro series, the macro mode was limited to the Pro models. However, starting with the iPhone 16 series, it\u2019s available even on the standard models since they pack an Ultra Wide lens. <\/p>\n
