iOS 11 Camera Issue

has anyone experienced the camera app only showing a black screen. It does it on the video camera too. But the weird thing is it works on Snapchat! I’m on iPhone 7 Plus using the GM build and it did this on beta 10.

Anyone?!


Thanks!

Does it show a black screen for all camera modes, if you can even access them?

Time Lapse works, Slo-mo works, Video black screen, Photo black screen, Portrait black screen, Square black screen, Pano works.... It's so weird.
 
I just did a clean install, set up as new phone to iOS 11 GM and same issues. Anyone experienced this?

I am using the iPhone 7 and I am not having an issue. Also it should be fine after restore, which is not the case. You have a hardware issue. Get it replaced.

I used to experience it when I was first on iOS 10, but the 10.* updates eventually took care of it.
[doublepost=1505584592][/doublepost]I’ve never experienced it with my iPhone 7 on iOS 11 PB.
 
I just had this problem. Locking the screen, waiting a few seconds and trying again fixed it.

However, this bug is a bit disconcerting as it could result in my missing an important photo! Argh. iOS 11 seems like more of a ****-show every day. I think it's time to revert and stay on 10 for the forseeable future.

Perhaps a bit dramatic.

iOS 11 is still in Beta. This issue persisted in iOS 10 for months.

The GM is a bit late in the beta process to have a serious bug like this.

At this point we should be dealing with minor cosmetic issues, not bugs that directly break functionality.

I don’t disagree with you at all on that, but my point still stands.
 
Update: restored to 10.3.3 and had the same problem. So I went to the apple store and they ran diagnostics on it and turns out there was an issue with the camera. So 2 hours later camera replaced and all is good!
