I’m seeing a reproducible system-level Camera crash/termination on iPhone Air running iOS 26.4.2.
Steps to reproduce:
Press Camera Control to launch the Camera app.
Tap the lower-left thumbnail to enter the recent photo view.
Browse photos, or tap Edit and start cropping a photo.
The Camera/Photos flow unexpectedly exits and returns to the Home Screen or widget view.
Additional detail:
The issue can happen whether or not a new photo is taken after launching Camera with Camera Control. In other words, using Camera Control as a shortcut into Camera, then tapping the lower-left thumbnail to browse photos, can trigger the issue. Sometimes it happens while only browsing photos, without entering Edit.
Expected result:
The photo viewer/editor should stay open and allow normal browsing or cropping.
Actual result:
The flow exits unexpectedly.
Mac Console evidence:
Around 2026-05-12 21:53:59-21:54:00, Console showed SpringBoard/RunningBoard terminating com.apple.camera.
Relevant log excerpt:
Capture Application Requirements Unmet: "AVCaptureEventInteraction not installed"
reportType: CrashLog
ReportCrash Parsing corpse data for pid 94087
com.apple.camera: Foreground: false
Storage is sufficient. Restart/reset-style support steps have already been tried and did not resolve the issue.
This appears specific to the Camera Control launch path, not normal Photos app browsing. Has anyone else seen this on iOS 26.x, or is this a known Camera Control / AVCaptureEventInteraction regression?
