If your iPhone camera screen turns purple during photos or video calls, it's likely a hardware issue. To diagnose and fix the problem, follow these steps:
1. Check for software issues by restarting your iPhone, updating iOS, and resetting all settings.
2. Check camera settings by switching between the front and rear cameras, and checking third-party apps.
3. Inspect hardware for physical damage and remove any cases or covers.
4. Perform a hardware diagnostic by running Apple's diagnostic tool or contacting Apple Support.
5. Restore your iPhone by backing up data and restoring it. If the issue persists, seek professional repair.

Have Apple run diagnostics. They can often do them remotely.
