Photo booth video freeze When I try to take a video of myself in Photo booth, the image freezes when the timer (before it starts recording) reaches 2, and when I stop it, it shows a minute-long frozen image whereas I only recorded about 4 seconds. The App Store says there's no updates to do and I've had this problem for months.

iOS 18.2 Photo App Crash and Freeze on iPhone 16 Pro I have noticed this behaviour after the latest update to 18.2. The photo app doesn’t open - it stays on a blank screen and then crashes. So, any app that needs access to photos also freezes while selecting photos or any photo operation. I also started using Final Cut Camera to film extremely short videos - not sure if this is relevant but thought it is worth mentioning. Did a complete reset and the problem still exists. The support engineer has told me to take it to a apple store. [Re-Titled By Moderator]

iPhone 16 camera fail to record videos or crash when I use the control button I got an iPhone 16 a few days ago, and when i use the camera control button for taking pictures or adjusting anything with my camera it works fine. However, when i press and hold the camera control button to take a video it either doesn’t take a video at all or it takes a video after a couple seconds of delay but then when i stop pressing the button my screen goes black and i’m kicked out of the camera app. Afterwards when I go into photos there are no new videos there. How can I fix this? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Hello Salma, I just test the Photo Booth using three different camera: Built-in MBP, using the iPhone as a camera, and my Logitech External camera) and they all work correctly. Is there any error message? Did you check the Console (under Utilities) for any error message?
