Recently I've noticed on my A13 when I open the camera app, it opens on the front facing camera, despite me not using it before then. I'm trying not to jump to the conclusion that I've been hacked but I've been cautious about spyware recently, is this a sign of someone accessing my camera remotely? Or is it something else? Let me know if any diagnostic info is needed, thanks

@Members_v5TJUSL  your device should default to the last camera used.   Try clearing the camera's cache, go to Settings-Apps-Camera-Storage-Force Stop- clear cache and restart the Device.

otherwise are there any issues highlighted with Diagnostics,Samsung Members-Support-Phone Diagnostics-Camera.

I do not work for Samsung or make Samsung Products but provide independent advice and valuable contributions.

Wouldn't you only be cautious about spyware of you had something to hide?
