Me too!! I’ve had my 14 pro for a couple months, have had a lot of storage “full” issues, and after only a few days with the new update the front camera will not work properly. Very laggy, blurry on Snapchat. Camera app just a blur, cant take any pictures. I’ve deleted pictures to clear storage, I’ve shut off my phone plenty of times and have reset it twice now hoping it would work, simply will not. Throughout a FaceTime call the camera will pause within every 10 seconds. How can I fix this issue?

Hello Christopher5602,


To help resolve this issue If the camera or flash on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch isn't working


Remove case, accessory, or film and test
1. Remove any case, accessory, or film that might block the camera or flash or that places a magnet near the camera.
2. Test the camera by trying to take a photo.
3. Test the LED flash:
1. Try the flashlight in Control Center on your iPhone or Control Center on your iPad. On an iPhone X or later or an iPad, swipe down from the upper-right corner of the screen. On an iPhone 8 or earlier, swipe up from the bottom edge of any screen.
2. Tap the Flashlight button Flashlight icon.
If the flash works only sometimes, open the Camera app and tap the flash button   to choose a different setting.
Contact Apple Support
If the camera or flash still isn't working properly, contact Apple Support to discuss service options.

If you want to try more steps on your own
If you prefer, here are some more steps you can try on your own if the camera isn't working. You might still need to contact Apple Support after following these steps. 
1. If the photo is blurry, clean the front and back camera lenses with a microfiber cloth. If you see dirt or debris inside the lens or if the camera lens appears to be misaligned or blocked, contact Apple Support to discuss service options.
2. Restart your iPhoneiPad, or iPod touch
3. Test the camera again by taking a photo. If your device has a front and rear camera, check if one or both isn’t working. To switch cameras, tap the rotate button .


Best Regards.
