Hey
Has anyone else had this issue? I can't use my camera at all and can't work out how to get it fixed without needing to factory reset my phone. Does anyone have any ideas? I'm waiting for Samsung members to get back to me but I'm not convinced.
Thanks in advance

Have you enabled anything on Developer Options like Sensors Off at Quick Panel? If yes, disable Developer Options and try opening Camera. If your issue gets solved, please accept my comment as solution by clicking at 3 dots on my comment

Nothing allowed all the time and nothing out of the ordinary while in use.

OK
May sound a bit drastic
Try a system reset
((( Make a backup )))
Then try a reset
