Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
My iPhone 12 Pro Max is about 6 months old. I just dropped it today and since then I've been getting a message saying "Unable to verify this iPhone has a genuine Apple camera". My iOS is up to date. Do I need to fix something with the camera? Or can I get rid of the message? Coming into Apple Support is not an option for me as I am working abroad and unlikely to be near an Apple store anytime soon. Thanks.
