    Images become blurry and fuzzy

    mail share

A recent iPhone update released during last week seems to have introduced a new bug into the software - apart from fixing existing ones.

The bug reportedly affects images received as e-mail attachments. When viewed within the e-mail, the image appears fine; however, it turns blurry and fuzzy if it is saved and then viewed in the "Photo" application.

There have been heated discussions amongst iPhone users regarding this issue in the Apple discussions forum.

A specialty of this bug is that it is highly inconsistent and is difficult to reproduce. It does not necessarily affect every image you try to save; the problem is confined to images of certain resolutions. While there has been no official explanation for why this happens, it is assumed that it has something to do with the way in which images are scaled to fit the iPhone screen.

As of now, iPhone owners are awaiting a fix from Apple to overcome this annoying little bug.
