iPhone 13 pro max camera keeps turning on

Within the last 2 days the camera keeps turning on by itself. At first I thought It was happening in my pocket somehow. But I have been sitting at my desk the last hour with the phone setting on a stand and the camera just comes on even though the phone is not being used. I was also on a phone call with the phone on the same stand and the screen changed from the phone app to the camera several times without me touching the phone. I am running the 15.1.1 software. I have done a hard reboot of the phone but that has not corrected the problem.

Hi there Vtgolfr,


Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities. We understand you're having issues with the Camera app opening unexpectedly, and we'd be happy to help.


To get started, have you noticed any other times that your iPhone has responded when it's not being touched? If so, we'd recommend taking a look at the steps listed in the following resource that can help: If the screen isn't working on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


Let us know how that goes.


Cheers!
