why the camera only opens after minimize and maximize the app. Otherwise it’s show black screen only.

If you’re experiencing an issue with your camera on your Pixel 7 Pro where it only works after minimizing and maximizing the app (in this case, WhatsApp), there are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:

  1. Restart the App: Close WhatsApp completely and then reopen it. This may help refresh the app and resolve any temporary glitches.
  2. Restart Your Phone: Sometimes, issues with apps or camera functionality can be resolved by restarting your phone. Restarting can help clear temporary data and refresh the system.
  3. Check App Permissions: Ensure that WhatsApp has the necessary permissions to access the camera. Go to your device’s settings, find the “Apps” or “Application Manager,” locate WhatsApp, and check its permissions.
  4. Clear App Cache: Clear the cache for WhatsApp. Go to your device’s settings, find the “Apps” or “Application Manager,” locate WhatsApp, and clear the app’s cache. Cached data can sometimes cause issues.
  5. Update WhatsApp: Make sure that you are using the latest version of WhatsApp. Developers often release updates to address bugs and improve app performance.
  6. Check for System Updates: Ensure that your phone’s operating system is up to date. System updates can bring fixes for various issues, including problems with camera functionality.
  7. Reinstall WhatsApp: If the issue persists, consider uninstalling and reinstalling WhatsApp. This can sometimes resolve more complex software issues.
  8. Contact WhatsApp Support: If none of the above steps resolve the issue, consider reaching out to WhatsApp support. They may have specific insights or solutions for your device.
  9. Check for Other Apps Interfering: Sometimes, third-party apps or camera-related apps may interfere with the normal operation of the camera. Try disabling or uninstalling any recently installed camera or photo-related apps to see if the issue persists.
  10. Factory Reset (if necessary): As a last resort, you might consider a factory reset. This will erase all data on your device, so be sure to back up important information before proceeding. After the reset, set up your device again and see if the camera issue is resolved.

Remember that these suggestions are general troubleshooting steps, and the exact steps or options might vary slightly depending on your device’s version of Android and the specific version of WhatsApp you are using.
