ios16 camera

My front and back camera stopped working and only displays a black screen, including all apps like snapchat. The 0.5 option has disappeared and flashlight does not work after updating to ios16.

iPhone 12, iOS 16

Greetings sarahmorris_,


If the camera on your iPhone is not working as expected, begin by following the guidance found here:


If the camera or flash on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch isn't working


"Remove case, accessory, or film and test

  1. Remove any case, accessory, or film that might block the camera or flash or that places a magnet near the camera.
  2. Test the camera by trying to take a photo.
  3. Test the LED flash:
    1. Try the flashlight in Control Center on your iPhone or Control Center on your iPad. On an iPhone X or later or an iPad, swipe down from the upper-right corner of the screen. On an iPhone 8 or earlier, swipe up from the bottom edge of any screen.
    2. Tap the Flashlight button Flashlight icon.

If the flash works only sometimes, open the Camera app and tap the flash button   to choose a different setting."


Take care.
