Fixed: iOS 13 Camera Not Working

Last night, I found that my iPhone camera not working anymore after I updated to iOS 13.2. To fix the issue, I searched on the Internet and got some tips. Finally, my camera can work normally again. Now I want to share the methods for you if you're also suffering from the issue. 

Method 1. Check iPhone Storage

If your iPhone storage is almost full, there will be no more space for you to take photos. So you can first check your iPhone storage to see whether it's running up. Just go to the Settings app > General > About > Available to see if there is a suggestion showing 'iPhone Storage Almost Full'.

Method 2. Close Camera App and Reopen

Sometimes, your camera app stops working is just because of the interference with other apps. So you can try to close the Camera app first and then reopen it.

Step 1. Tap on the Home button twice (for iPhone models with Home button) or swipe up on the screen for a few seconds (for iPhone models without Home button), and you will see all the apps you've been using.
Step 2. Swipe to the left side and find the Camera app. Then swipe up on it to close the app. Open the Camera app again to see whether it works now.

Method 3. Reboot Your Device

Another simple method you can try to fix camera not working on iOS 13 is to reboot iPhone. It will close all the programs running in your device and give it a fresh restart. Different models have different procedures and the following is how.

For iPhone X and later, keep pressing the Side button and Volume Up (or Volume Down) button and release them until the slider to power off appears on your screen. Then drag the slider to turn it off. Next press the Side buttons for a few seconds and release it when you see the white Apple logo.
For iPhone 8 and former, the procedure is almost the same. The difference is that you only need to press and hold down the Top (or Side) button to command the slider or Apple logo appear.

Method 4. Force Restart iPhone

If the simple restart failed to resolve iOS 13 camera not working problem, you can then try to force restart it. This could be the most straightforward way to solve almost all iOS glitches. Now follow the quick guide below.

For iPhone 8 and above, you can press the Volume Up button and release it quickly. Then do the same for the Volume Down button. Next press and hold the Side button until the white Apple logo is visible.
For iPhone 7 and 7 Plus, keep holding the Volume Down and Power buttons at the same time and release them once you see the Apple logo come out.
For iPhone 6s and earlier, press the Home and Power buttons simultaneously. Release both until the white Apple logo appears on the screen.

Method 5. Update iOS Version

If your iOS 13 is just the debug version for Apple developers, you can then try updating to the latest one, in which some issues may have fixed, such as iOS 13 camera and flashlight not working.

Step 1. Open your iPhone and go to Settings > General > Software Update.
Step 2. Tap it and press Download and Install if there is any update available. Keep your device in full power during the process.

Method 6. Reset Your iPhone

At times, your camera not working problem may be caused by the settings on your device. You can try to reset the iPhone settings to get it fixed. It will not cause any data loss on the data loss, but we still recommend you to make a backup for your data in case of any accident.

Step 1. Open you iPhone and go to Settings > General > Reset.
Step 2. Tap the Reset All Settings and confirm the action.

Method 7. Restore iPhone with iTunes

If resetting iPhone settings has not solved the camera not working after iOS 13 update, you can then try to restore iPhone completely. This will cause data loss, so always remember to back up your important data before using this method.

Step 1. Open the latest version of iTunes app on your computer and connect your iPhone to it with a USB cable.
Step 2. Find your device and then go to Summary > Restore iPhone... Confirm the action and iTunes will start to restore your device and set it up as a new iPhone.
