iPhone 7 Camera App does not work

THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE. It is a faulty rear camera sensor. I bet this will be a massive recall. You better hope it happens to you while it is still under warranty. Or get Apple Care + while you are eligible. Ever since we lost Steve, everything gets worse and worse.

i have same issue, and was disappointed, how apple made such faulty devices? me using apple from many years, but may be this one, iphone 7 will be my last apple device, then i'll shift to android, i am not more interested to spend money to buy apple's expensive faulty devices.

nothing new in ios 10.3 regarding camera issues, i updated my iphone 7 to ios 10.3, but still both cameras, and flash are not working, very much disappointed, now i have to said... once there was a steve jobs who invented worlds best phone, but after that, it becomes worlds worst.... i'll shift now on android

Same situation. Waiting for this update, because camera in my wife's iphone 7 dead and than arised after update, and one more time dead forewer after 10.2.... we hope that Apple will fix the problem, but.... seems they do not want to see this problem.

Thanks for the suggestion. Everyone else is saying this is a faulty sensor, but I can't see how this can be a faulty sensor since it works fine with all other apps. I used to hard reset to solve the problem, but tried your suggestion of switching to video mode and back and it works a treat, thank you (sorry it doesn't work for you, but appreciate the advice).

Camera in Iphone 7+ is not working ;(

Why the back camera is black? Please tell me, and reply this.

I have the same issue the only way to make the camera work again is by doing a hard reset. When this problem happened I tried using snap chat and the camera worked fine both front and back. when switched to send a text message photo the camera would not work then either. I hope this gets resolved with iOS 10.1

HI xtreme,

What's the status of your camera now? I'm having the same issue on my iPhone

ProCam4? Sigh it doesn't work like you said on my phone

other apps like instagram and WhatsApp camera, it works

I've got same problem iPhone 7 plus 256gb.

I'm a bit disappointed..

This is my 2nd iPhone 7 plus that the camera stopped working on ONCE AGAIN!!! Apple needs to get this fixed!
