I'm going on vacation soon and wanted to upgrade my iPhone 13 to the iPhone 15 Pro before I go – solely for the 3x optical zoom. However, everyone is sold out of the 15 Pro so I'm unlikely to get it before I go. I know my iPhone 13 can do digital zoom, but it's not ideal.

Are there any iPhone camera apps that use AI to help sharpen digital zoom images as you take the photo? Sorry if it's a dumb question – I'm not too familiar with digital photography.

Generative AI (like “super zoom”) is a fairly compute intense operation and is unlikely going to be able to run in real-time (as you take a photo) for a while…

With zoom, the limiting factor is Generally hand shake And motion blur. Especially on a phone.
