iphone 6 apps can't access camera

None of my apps can access camera or photos. I went to Settings-->Privacy-->Photos, but none of the apps are showing up as requesting access. This just happened all of a sudden. Help!

iPhone 6, iOS 8.3

Hello there pinkgrapefruit89,


As I understand it you none of your apps can access your camera, and they are not listed in your Privacy settings. I would check to see if restrictions are enabled on your phone first:


About Restrictions (parental controls) on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch


If not then I would next quit all the running apps on your phone:


iOS: Force an app to close

Double-click the Home button.

Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.

Swipe the app up to close it.


When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:


iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

All the very best,

Sterling
