Just solved the issue, although i do not know if this is expected behavior…
go to settings → search for camera in apps
disable the following app
version v8.01.01.0009.5.0
com.fps.camera
which is probably the first one in the list (white / green icon)
reboot your fp
When /e/OS 3.2?? added the Fairphone camera app (com.fps.camera), it apparently didn’t properly handle having two camera apps competing for camera access. This is likely a bug in how the apps are registered as default camera handlers… just a thought
