Apple Releases iOS 12.3.2 for iPhone 8 Plus – Fixes Portrait Mode Depth Effect

Apple Releases iOS 12.3.2 for iPhone 8 Plus – Fixes Portrait Mode Depth Effect

Apple has released iOS 12.3.2 for iPhone 8 Plus. The limited iOS software update appears to resolve an issue where sometimes iPhone 8 Plus would take portrait mode photos but without the software depth effect which blurs the background of the image.

If you do not have iPhone 8 Plus, the iOS 12.3.2 update will not be available to you (yet, anyway).

iPhone 8 Plus users can find and download the iOS 12.3.2 update from the Software Update section of the Settings app on their devices.

As usual it’s a good idea to backup the iPhone to iCloud or iTunes before beginning any software update.

The brief release notes accompanying the download for iOS 12.3.2 are as follows:

iPhone 8 Plus users can also install the update by using IPSW if desired, the link below downloads the firmware file directly from Apple servers:
