Hi Lawnchair45,


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you're having an issue with privacy settings for third-party apps and your camera. We're happy to help.


As you're not seeing any information from the settings, we'd recommend checking your current restrictions by navigating to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions. The article here can further assist: Use parental controls on your child's iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch


If this device was provided to your by a business or school, you can also check for any profiles installed that may be preventing your access: Install or remove configuration profiles on iPhone


Best!
