updates: Ensure that Snapchat is up-to-date by checking the iOS App Store
or Google Play Store.

permissions: If you see an "Snapchat is a camera" error message,
grant the necessary camera permissions. On an iOS device, open Snapchat, tap on
the profile icon in the top left corner of the screen, and then on the Settings
(cog) icon. From there, enable camera permissions. On an Android device, go to
your device's settings, tap on 'Privacy & security', tap 'Camera' from the
list of available permissions, find Snapchat in the app list, and enable it if
currently disabled.

storage: If your device is running low on storage, it might affect the
camera's functionality. Clear some space on your device by deleting unnecessary
files, apps, or photos.

issues related to storage or other device settings.
