iPhone camera lens glass cracked: what to do

If the rear camera glass on your iPhone is cracked, photos show spots, flare or blur and dust and moisture get in through the crack. If the camera still focuses and gives a picture, usually only the camera glass is replaced. If the picture is blurry, dark or spotty, the camera module should also be checked.

Key points
  • Cracked camera glass causes spots and flare in photos.
  • Dust and moisture can get in through the crack and harm the camera.
  • If the camera is fine, only the camera glass is replaced.

  • Back up your data before the repair.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

Does a cracked camera glass break the camera?

Not straight away, but dust and moisture getting in can harm the camera over time.

02

Can only the camera glass be replaced?

Yes. If the camera is fine, only the protective camera glass is replaced.

03

Why are photos spotty with cracked glass?

The crack scatters light and causes spots and flare. New glass fixes the picture.

04

Will a camera glass replacement delete my data?

Data is usually preserved during a repair; still, you need to back up your data before the repair starts (backups are the customer’s responsibility).

Phone works but the screen is black: what to do

If your phone rings or vibrates but the screen is black, the phone is on; the problem is the screen or its connection. Force restart and charge it first. Shine a torch close to the screen in the dark: a faint picture means a backlight fault. If it started after a drop or liquid, the screen is usually replaced.
