OK do here is a weird one and I dont know if it's even iOS 8 but my facetime camera isn't working on my iPhone 5s. I can't even say when it stopped working cause I don't use it that often. When I tried to use it tonight it was a black screen and then I was able to see the person but they couldn't see me. Tried reboot and still the same. Regular camera seems fine but when I try to switch over it goes black. Hardware or software...

Did you see yourself or nothing at all?

nothing at all. I even tried another app- camera plus and tried to flip it to front facing and it froze like on main camera app. I'm leaning towards hardware

Just an update. It was hardware. They replaced it with a new 5s. That should hopefully help my resale next month when I get the 6
