Hi geniegirl,

I understand your friend is having some issues with a recently purchased iPhone 5. Can you elaborate more on the other "glitches" you are experiencing besides the Camera app? I'm going to include some basic troubleshooting steps to get started. I would also recommend that your friend reach other to the seller of the iPhone to report issues with the purchase.
