Facetime camera being used by another app I use my iPhone XS Max to FaceTime my wife's iPad. After the connection I select the camera flip to view from the rear camera on my iPhone. As soon as I do, I get the Camera being used by another application on my iPhone and the iPad gets Paused. Once this happens it freezes. We are running the latest iOS 13 on both devices. The iPhone that is associated with the iPad works just fine when flipping camera in FaceTime. Also when calling from iPad to my iPhone the camera flip works on the iPad just not on my iPhone.

iPhone continuity camera not working iPhone continuity camera appears no longer to work on ios 16.5.1 (c). When I run Facetime on Mac, and choose iPhone camera, the iPhone displays a black screen with only two options PAUSE or DISCONNECT, neither of which buttons does anything. About ten seconds later the link is broken and the iphone returns to the home. I'm on iPhone 13 Pro, and this worked a week or so ago when I first tested it, so it looks as if the latest iOS update has broken the feature. Any ideas?

Only method to recover is to start a new facetime conversation. It happens consistently ever since 13.2.2

I have the same issue. Tried with a new XSMax, same issue. Definitely a software glitch.
