Camera Remote - Black screen since update

Hello there


Ever since updating to iOS 17.4 my Camera Remote has a constant black screen.

I tried restarting both devices. Closing the Apps. Opening the apps - both ways: first on apple watch, camera on phone. Changing Cameras on the watch. Changing Photo/Video Mode. Nothing...


I know that there has been a bug with the black screen around ever since, but it is just not working at all anymore since the update. Controls on the watch within Camera Remotes are working, I just have a black screen on the watch.


Any help? This is absolutely frustrating and I am pretty mad about it, as I use it quite a lot...


Devices & OS:

Iphone 13 Pro, iOS 17.4

Apple Watch 8, watchOS 10.4

Apple Watch Series 8

I have the same problem and it is very annoying!


I have ultra 2 and all the time it is black screen, some of the time it is all blurred.


in order to work I have to restart both devices or one of them.
