Fix 1: The first switch to the front camera, then switch to the back camera

Imagine you are using your iPhone 13 pro max camera app, and suddenly, it shows a black screen because of a glitch. It may happen that your iPhone camera app does not work properly if something like this happens. You should then switch between the front and back cameras. It is sometimes possible to achieve the same result by switching between a rare camera and a selfie camera.

• Launch the camera app
• You can switch between the front-facing camera and the rear-facing camera by clicking on the camera switcher icon
• Tap the same icon again to switch back to your iPhone’s primary camera option

In addition, you can also change the camera mode (video, portrait etc.) which should also refresh the application and sometimes fix the iPhone camera not working problem.

Fix 2: Restart your camera app 

There may be a problem loading the camera on your iPhone 13 pro max or if it has frozen in place. The best thing you can do is restart the application. It is possible for your iPhone camera app to stop working after using it for a long period of time.

Quitting the app is the only way to restart it. The preview of the open apps will appear when you swipe up on your iPhone screen and hold your finger in place. After that, swipe the camera app away and reopen it.

There should be a fix for the issue of the camera app on the iPhone 13 pro max being frozen. You can try other methods in this list if this doesn’t solve your problem.

Fix 3: Update your iPhone

There has been mentioned above that sometimes compatibility issues can lead to such problems as well. Staying updated is highly recommended to avoid such situations. It is always a good idea to keep your iPhone updated. Please follow the steps below in case you have no idea how to do that:

• You should open the “Settings” app on your iPhone if you wish to update it. Open the General option from the “settings” menu
• Go to the general tab and click on the option “Software update.”. The update will appear on the screen, and you just have to click on “download and install.”.

Fix 4: Restart your iPhone 

By restarting your iPhone 13 pro max, you will give all of your apps a chance to shut down and start over fresh. In some cases, this can fix a minor software issue causing your iPhone camera to malfunction.

If your iPhone does not have an ID card facing, you will need to hold the power button until a slide appears for powering down. If you have an iPhone with face ID, press and hold the side button and a volume button simultaneously until the Power off slide appears.

Turn your iPhone off by dragging the red and white power icon left, waiting a few moments, then pressing the iPhone power button (iphone without face ID) or the side button (iphone with face ID) to turn it back on.

Fix 5: Reset All Settings 

In the event that none of the above solutions work for your iPhone camera not working, you can also try resetting your settings. By doing this, you will be able to use the iPhone cameras and give your apps a blank space. Please note that this does not reset your files or data.

The steps below will guide you through resetting your settings if you are not familiar with them:

• Select the general option in the settings app
• Then click on Transfer or Reset iPhone option
• Select Reset > Reset All Settings
