Edit to reply - Already up to date. Even uninstalled all updates and re updated. Cant even take a normal flash photo in a dark environment. Despite turning off auto, and selecting "On" for the flash, it still insists on doing a hybrid night shot of 2 or 3 seconds. To be honest, the whole phone is terrible, the camera as a whole is very average, but the fact you can't do basic features is unfathomable. and I'm comparing to my previous phone, a several year old Huawei Mate 20 Pro.

Hi Anthony. We hate to hear your camera isn't working perfectly. Let's get you back to snapping great photos. A quick app update usually does the trick.
