Useless on iPhone 13+

Rear camera show blurry the first time and as soon as you change the resolution, green lines show. Front camera is fine.

Good on supported devices

Works perfectly on an old iPod touch with iOS 12. No resolution option for the front camera for some reason, but I don’t need it anyway.
I figured it could be useful on my iPhone 16 Pro, but sadly doesn’t work. On first launch, it defaults to a very low resolution, something like 240p or lower. Setting any other resolution causes the image to become garbled and distorted. The only way to get back to the working low resolution is to re-install the app. The front camera works fine however.
