Front camera is not working with whatsapp after OneUI 6.1 update. It is working with all other apps and camera is able to take selfie as well. Seems like a bug with whatsapp with one ui 6.

If it doesn't work the backup your WhatsApp data and clear app data.

If the issue still persists then wait for samsung to rollout an update

Fixed the issue, if anyone face the issue just wipe the cache from bootloader.

In apps search for "video call effects" and clear all data for it. Seems some bug in 6.1 update. I had the same issue, this fixed it
