Camera not working on Android suddenly

Hi, today our power app that has been running flawless for many months is suddenly having an issue on Android devices only.

I've replicated the issue on a different android phone running a newer version of Android, with a fresh install of power apps.

When going to a screen with the camera control, the screen only shows a play button and does not show a camera viewfinder nor does it take photos.

This is still working on ios.

Can someone please assist with this issue.

Hello @Anonymous,

Can you try republishing your app? Let me know if this fixes the issue.

Thanks mobaky, this worked.

I did a Save-as and the new app worked, but the original still didn't. I then saved over the top of the original app and my phone downloaded an update for the app, but did not fix the issue. I then cleared the cache and tried again, and the original app is now working correctly again.

To clarify, I had already tried clearing cache prior to re-publishing.

Thank you.
