- The latest update to the new Project Indigo app disables super-resolution by default on many iPhones.
- The changes appear aimed at reducing overheating and stability issues reported in early tests.
- Other tweaks include thermal warning adjustments and lower capture rates on weaker devices.
When we tested Project Indigo last month, we were impressed with its lifelike photos, but the app also caused our iPhone 16 to run hot and freeze up. Indigo is built by two of the creators behind Google’s Pixel camera app, and now a fresh update (Version 10.2) has landed this week that appears to address these sorts of issues.
According to the release notes, the Indigo update disables super-resolution by default on the iPhone 14 Pro, 14 Pro Max, 15, and 15 Plus models. It also tweaks thermal warnings so they only appear when the device reaches a “critical” temperature state rather than earlier in the overheating process.
