Camera delay and black screen on iPhone 16 Hello, lately I've noticed that whenever I open the camera through the camera control button, the picture freezes for 2-3 seconds and then everything is fine until a few hours later. Sometimes it's just a black screen for a few seconds and then it's fine again. It's not a big deal but it's very annoying. Does anyone else have this problem and do you have any solutions? My phone is an iPhone 16 on iOS 18.3.2 [Re-Titled By Moderator]

Camera freezes after updating to iOS 26.0.1 I have a problem with the camera after updating to iOS 26.0.1 on my iPhone 12 Pro. There is a black screen, when zooming in more than 1.9x it freezes (in photo mode), when shooting video everything is fine, portrait mode does not work. In other apps everything seems fine. What could be the problem?

When you are finished using an app how do you close it?

Push up from the bottom to go back to the Home screen
Push halfway up and pause to open the App Switcher, then swipe up to force-close the app

If you use the 2nd way (which is always the wrong way) that might cause delays opening apps.
