Iphone x && iphone 6 autofocus not work

By ArtiomK on Wed, 05/16/2018 - 11:40

Hello! we encountered the following problem when launching vuforia - unity on iphone 6 and iphone x autofocus does not work, nor an additional script with FOCUS_MODE_CONTINUOUSAUTO nor with the addition (device.focusMode = AVCaptureFocusModeContinuousAutoFocus;) to the XCODE project.

We do not use other frameworks, like arkit . Unity 2017.2- 2018.1 does not solve this problem. Xcode different versions also do not help. Iphone X , IOS 11.3,   Unity 2017.3.1f1 , Mac OS 10.13.4,  Xcode 9.2 (with support for Ios 11.3)  

We can not solve this problem and some of our customers are annoyed with this. Please tell us how we can solve this problem, thanks

You need Vuforia 7.1.34 to get auto focus.  Vuforia 7+ uses arkit as the internal engine whether you are using it or not. Anything prior to  Vuforia 7.1.34 uses Arkit 1.0 which doesnt auto focus.  Arkit 1.5 does autofocus which is 7.1.34+.
