iPhone 13 Pro Max camera flash not working after iOS 26.3

Camera flash stopped working on iPhone 13 pro max after I updated to iOS 26.3.

Torch from control centre works but flash in camera app doesn't.

I've tried the following fixes but to no avail:

i- Phone restart

ii- Turning off content & privacy restrictions

iii- Resetting all settings

Nothing has worked so far.

Help!

Back Camera and Flashlight still Not Working even After iOS 18.7.2 Update on iPhone SE 2020 Hi everyone, After updating my iPhone SE 2020 to iOS 18.1.1, my back camera and flashlight have completely stopped working. I then updated to iOS 18.7.2, but unfortunately, the bug is still not fixed, and troubleshooting hasn’t helped. The rear camera sometimes works briefly after resetting (+ - lock button) the phone, but the second time I open the camera app, the image freezes and then the screen goes black. This shows that my camera and flash is still works properly.

Flash won’t fire in some photo and video modes. Flash can also be disabled in Camera settings and on screen.
