Apps can't use any permissions

All of a sudden, none of my apps can use previously set permissions, like access to photos, access to microphone/camera etc etc. I was wondering if there's a way to fix this, without having to reset my iPhone entirely. If anybody could help, that would be amazing. Thank you so much

iPhone 7, iOS 15

My phone has a mind of it's own....what can I do? My phone (iphone x, new in late 2018) has many issues recently. Apps open on their own, all apps start to shake as if they are all ready to be deleted, I get screens randomly asking permission to delete an app, sometimes the unlock won't work until I try it several times, many other malfunctions, to the point where I don't know what to do. I lock it to try to make the craziness stop and also try to fix it by shutting it down and restarting it. I have not called apple for help yet, this is my first attempt to learn how to fix it. Any suggestions? Need ASAP...thank you.

IOS 15.3.1 and app permissions Did apple change how app permissions work after the new update? Apparently nome of my apps know where to ask for contacts, camera, microphone permissions anymore… This is quite annoying. I understand it is also up to the developers to update their apps, but apple could have been “friendly” by warning or making it still compatible…

You need to delete the app and install it again from the app store.
