The camera keeps turning off during video calls when I switch to a second app

Hello everyone

I moved to use the iPhone recently and I have the iPhone 7 Plus. I am facing a problem during video calls. When I switch from the application through which I make the video call to another application, my camera stops. Is there a solution to this problem?

Thank you so much for your reply

i tried to find the permissons of the camera but I couldn’t find them

also even if I switch from the application to background the camera stops so my friend cannot see me until i get in the application which i use to make the call again

So how i can give the permisson to camera to work on background ?

thank you again 🙏
