Instagram crashes the second I open the camera. Everyone else's works fine.

Feed and DMs are totally fine, but the moment I tap the camera or try to record a reel, instant crash back to the home screen. Already reinstalled once. Android, mid-range phone. Anyone seen this specific one?
Camera-only crashes usually point to three things: a permissions glitch (revoke and re-grant Camera + Microphone permission for Instagram in system settings), low free RAM or storage (the camera module is heavy, clear some space), or a bad update. If a recent update triggered it, roll back to an older version until they patch it. Also test your normal camera app to rule out hardware.
