In the current beta of iPadOS 26.0 (23A5297m), the camera does not function properly when the following conditions are met: The device is set to Windowed Apps mode in the Settings app. Multiple application windows are present on one screen. Using AVCaptureVideoPreviewLayer. On the other hand, UIImagePicker works properly. Is this a specification of iPadOS 26 that cannot be avoided? Or is there an official solution or workaround available?
