14 Pro Max Loss of Ultra Wide camera after ios16.4.1

Has anyone else experienced the “important camera message” and loss of the ultra wide camera after updating to ios16.4.1?. This has happened to my 14 pro max and the phone has never been taken apart and working perfectly fine before the 16.4.1 update.

iPhone 14 Pro Max, iOS 16

Did you already restore your device back to factory settings, using your computer, as described in this article?

To make sure, that this is not software related, set it up manually at first, without using the latest backup.

Then test the camera again.


If the ultra wide camera still can't be used, contact the official Apple Support about that:

No idea about that, sorry.


Since your iPhone is still covered by warranty, I suggest that you make an appointment (*) and have your device inspected at an Apple Store or AASP (Apple Authorized Service Provider) among this list:--> https://locate.apple.com/choose-country-region . After checking it out, they'll give you all the available options.
