Camera is cooked

[vkzeppeli]

My camera has slowly became unusable. first it couldn't zoom and would freeze then shut down. Next it would only work on front camera and would shut down/freeze when trying to flip to back camera. And now when I open the camera app, there's an error message and its unusable. but when I open tik tok, everything works perfectly fine from pictures to videos. Why....

ive heard so many users are having this issue. Samsung needs to get it together

And here I thought it was because I dropped my phone too hard!

It probably is because you dropped your phone.  It doesn't even have to hit hard, just at the right angle.  I don't know if the OP ever dropped their phone, or handled it roughly, but something damaged the camera.

If you have no problems in TikTok or other apps, there might be a software issue with the camera app.  You can either download another camera app and see if that works, or you can reset your phone and restore your backup.  Make sure you backup all data and music to a flash drive or to the temporary cloud storage first.
