Apps w/ in-app camera crash when taking photo

Using an iPhone 4S w/ iOS 6.1.3
Lately I've noticed that I am unable to take a photo in any app that has an in-app camera. As soon as I press the "shutter" button, the apps crash. This has happened with VSCOCam, Instagram*, and my mobile banking app (when trying to take a photo of a check for Mobile Deposit).
However, the native iPhone camera is behaving normally, with no issues.
Anyone else having this issue, or any idea how to fix this?
Thanks!
* = This is also happening within Instagram when I choose to use a photo from my camera roll. I crop it, apply an effect, and as soon as I touch "Done" the app crashes.

Hello there, HeroBoy.
A great place to start when having issues with any application is the following Troubleshooting Assistant for apps:

  • N73 crashes when taking photo under low light cond...

    My N73 crashes almost always when I take photos under bad conditions, i.e. when it is very dark, or when the camera is too close to an object to focus. I am aware that it sounds a bit improbable, but it has happened at least 20 times now, and never under good conditions.
    The symptoms are variable: The phone stops reacting to keys, sometimes entirely, sometimes I can only switch it off and on, sometimes only the active standby works.
    Sometimes it helps sliding the camera open and shut repeatedly, then the camera software (which I think is to blame) shuts down.
    Sometimes I can only remove the battery to reset it.
    Does anybody else notice the same?
    It is not really reproducible, but it happens too darn often.
    PS: My phone firmware is V3.0638.0.0.2 (Vodafone branded).
    PPS: Please don't tell me to use the phone only in bright sunshine.

    Hm.. Doesn't seem possible. According to http://europe.nokia.com/softwareupdate I have the latest FW. I suspect there are more recent updates for non-Vodafone-enslaved phones, but I am unsure whether (let alone how) I can use them.

    Thank you very much for your reply gdgmacguy :) I did all you suggested apart from restore as new device . Didn't know I could do that . After restore I did restore from back up only,  as I didn't want to end up without contacts details on my phone. If I restore as new device how do I get my all contacts? Still will have to use back up? Sorry if it sounds like I don't know what i am doing, i just have no one to ask who would know. Thank you

  • In the photos app I have 2 camera rolls and 1 photo gallery. Each new photo that I take gets stored in one of the camera rolls, but when I back up the photos to my computer it only backs up the one camera roll, and not any of the new picks. Please help

    In the photos app I have 2 camera rolls and 1 photo gallery. Each new photo that I take gets stored in one of the camera rolls, but when I back up the photos to my computer it only backs up the one camera roll, and not any of the new picks. In the one I backed up I have 500 plus photos and the other over 1000. I need to back up the 1000 one- camera roll. Any help would be sincerely appreciated. Help .... Please

  • Safari, App Store, iCloud all instantly crash when I try to open them on iOS 7

    Safari, App Store, iCloud all instantly crash when I try to open them on iOS 7.
    On iPhone 5s. Cannot back up (on cloud) or even enter settings for any of the apps as it crashes again.
    Luckily had Chrome installed or would not be able to go online. Ideas?

    If you have apps that crash as soon as you attempt to access them and resetting the network settings had no effect I would then go straight to restoring the device back to default settings. Once restored to default I would try the device to see if this resolved the issue BEFORE restoring the backup to the device. It's likely the issue you are having has to do with corrupted software.

  • IPhone 5 flash on camera stopped working when taking photos & poor quality photos

    iPhone 5 camera flash  stopped  working when taking  photos and poor Quality photos . Flash still works when in torch mode .

    Hey there Jimbo,
    It sounds like your flash has stopped working on your phone and you noticed a decrease in image quality.
    I recommend a few troubleshooting steps here. Start with closing the running apps on the phone:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that restart the phone and test it again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:

  • Don't see the green rectangle when taking photo, 2. How can I set up viber on my iPad

    1.When taking photo with this iPad, I don't see the green rectangle. My friend told me that in order to take a clear picture, you need to see the green rectangle. When I take a picture of myself, then I see it. Why is that?
    2. How can you set up Viber? Does Viber can make long distance call back to US when I am out of the country? For example: if I am in Hong Kong, I want to make a call back home to a US phone #, is there any charge. What about SMS? The people I call or SMS have to be on Viber also?
    How can I see your response? Are you going to email me? My email address is [email protected]
    Thanks,
    Christine

    Have you checked Skype's website regarding the ability to do this with their iPad app?

  • Is ILife 11 the current version today? Will its purchase upgrade my Iphoto 8.2.1 to Iphoto 11? I have a Macbook, Maverick and Iphoto is crashing when exporting photos.  I understand ILife is the way to fix it.

    Is ILife 11 the current version today? (May  2014).  ILife 11 on Amazon appears to be 3+ yrs old?
    When searching for ILife 11 on the Apple Store, I am directed to a separate purchase of Iphoto version 9.
    Somewhat confusing, Apple is always so clear with these things. 
    The goal is to upgrade my Iphoto 8.2.1 to Iphoto 11.
    I have a Macbook Pro, Maverick 10.9.2 and Iphoto is crashing when exporting photos. 
    I understand ILife is the way to fix it.
    Thanks!

    The current version of iPhoto is iPhoto 9.5.1., and it is the latest version of iPhoto '11.
    If you are running Mavericks 10.9.2, you can buy iPhoto 9.5.1 from the AppStore - it is the currently sold version.
    The iLife bundle is called iLife '11, and the iPhot version in iLife '11 is iPhoto 9.x.x. - that is confusing allright
    I have a Macbook Pro, Maverick 10.9.2 and Iphoto is crashing when exporting photos.
    While it is certainly useful to upgrade to the current iPhoto version to be fully compatible with MacOs X 10.9.2, there may be a differnet reason for the crashes. Is there an error message with the crashes? When did these start? Did you import new photos or videos? Install other software?

    Hi and welcome to the BlackBerry Community support forums!
    Do you have the images on phone memory or on a micro sd card? Ether way, plug the device into a computer and move the pictures onto that computer to see if the computer will recognize them. If not they are corrupt.
    As far as the device, There seems to be a problem saving the pictures properly, I would recommend reloading device software through BlackBerry desktop software.
    Good Luck and let me know if I can further assist you.

  • My iPhone 4S camera seems started taking photos tinted PINK - what going on and how can I fix it?

    My camera is only taking photos tinged pink - quite clear and everything else works - but tinted pink.  I had to replace the camera a few months ago (in Victoria BC) and everything wass fine until the earthquake 21 July - any connection?  and solutions?

    You should get it checked again by those people who replaced the camera. And the earthquake probably wasn't connected to that, unless the phone fell to the floor and something broke inside the phone.

  • Moto X Camera App Crashes When Taking Movies

    Recently, the camera app has started crashing whenever I try to take a movie with my Moto X.  Has anyone else been having this problem?

    I'm also having this problem AND a coworker is having the same issue.  I called motorola and they suggested starting in safe mode to determine if a 3rd party app was effecting the camera, but it crashed in safe mode too. 
    Anyone have an answer to this?
