Error message when open the Camera

Every time when I open the camera on my iPhone XS Max. I get this message:

The trueDepth Camera is being used by another application. Attention awareness is temporarily disabled.


Attention awareness is now enabled.

iPhone XS Max, iOS 14

Hello AbbyGautam,


Thanks for posting in Apple Support Communities!


We see that you are getting the “Your camera is in use by another application" message on your iPhone when you open the camera app.

We’d be happy to help you!


Since you already referred to FaceTime Camera: "Your camera is in use by another application" message,

have you been able to close all other applications through the steps in Close an app on your iPhone or iPod touch?


Let us know if that does not resolve your issue.


Take care.
