Adobe’s computational photography app, Project Indigo, faced challenges adapting to the new square-format selfie sensor in the iPhone 17 series. Initially, the app lacked support for Apple’s latest phones, prompting Adobe to work on resolving the issue. To address this, Adobe temporarily disabled access to the front-facing camera to ensure compatibility with iPhone 17 models.
Launched in June, Project Indigo quickly gained a following for its unique image processing approach, distinct from the native iPhone camera app. However, the introduction of new sensors in the iPhone 17 series posed compatibility issues for the app. A forthcoming iOS 26.1 update is expected to restore support for the selfie camera, but for now, users of iPhone 17 devices will have to rely on rear-camera functionality only.
