Front camera gone dark but Face ID works.. what could be the problem

Hey Opk8080,

I understand you're having some trouble with the front-facing camera. I'll be happy to help out.

Take a look at this resource for help with your front-facing camera: If the camera on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch isn't working - Apple Support. Also, make sure that there is no magnetic interference that could be affecting the iPhone: Magnetic accessories might interfere with iPhone cameras.

Have a great day.
