How do I restore camera functionality after iOS 17 and 18 updates on iPhone?

I have lost total use of my camera after the two most recent updates to iso 17 and 18.

I have tried every suggestion I have read here and in online searches… I am very frustrated because I use my camera daily and need my camera…

FYI my app opens and nothing else… I have reset my phone many times (seems like 100 times) and nothing!

HELP!!!

You need to have Apple perform diagnostics on your iPhone. It can be done in person at an Apple Retail Store or at an Apple Authorized Service Provider. You can also contact Apple Support and request remote diagnostics.


If you’re in the US please call  1-800-MY-APPLE or outside the US, consult the support articles below.
