Front facing camera all the sudden zoomed in

[user8TNy0cVubH]

A couple of weeks ago all the sudden my front camera zooms in after a pic is taken. When I am taking the pic it looks "normal" then when I view the picture it's zoomed in and partly cut off... The camera worked great until then. It may have started with the last update. I am not talking about social media apps, my actual camera app that came with the phone is doing this. Any suggestions on how to fix? Thank you.

Hello,

I am also having this issue. It started after I updated the phone in early April. Samsung, is there a patch in the works? To work-around this issue, I'm having to use a different app to take front-facing photos correctly.

Thanks!

There is this oval icon on the bottom just above the white circle, with 2heads/1head.

You must choose the one with 2 to stay full. 1 will zoom.

Yes this works.

Same for me!  I contacted Samsung and they tried to clear a bunch of cache, and restore factory settings and nothing worked.  The backup didn't happen right and I lost of lot of data  Samsung sent me to a local repair place and they couldn't figure it out either. So Verizon, had a new phone sent to me since mine was still under warranty. Well, the new phone is doing the same thing!!!!  Its so aggravating.  I dont know how Samsung claims not to know anything about it.

If you go into the Camera settings, do you see an option to save the image as the preview?

I did what you suggested (save as preview) and it just stopped the flip.  Still zoomed in
