when trying to take a picture or even FaceTiming someone with my front camera it show a purple streak in the middle of the screen and it looks like some type of glitch. This is only occurring on the front camera. Will it go away or would I have to do something about it if so what?

Hi ramla226,


Thanks for coming to Apple Support Communities. We're glad to point you in the right direction to ensure your front-facing camera is soon snapping beautiful photos without issue.


Have you had an opportunity to inspect the front-facing camera glass closely to ensure there is no obstruction or blemish? If you're using any kind of protective case or screen film, be sure to remove it for further testing.
