So I recently swiped right to take a quick picture and I saw that there was a image on the bottom left corner so I clicked the image to see the picture and it was my whole gallery. I’ve tried turning off my phone and everything but nothing works but it randomly comes and goes?

iPhone 11, iOS 14

That only happens if you look at your phone screen while looking at said picture to enable face id to unlock your phone. Then you can access all pictures.
