Hi  
i am trying to use the new interface.  
I find it very beautiful but …  
I need to take photos in the app.  
But in iphone X thunkable live is not working properly.  
First it didn’t ask for permission to use camera photo then I used the old interface and so I was able to get permission.  
now in the new interface opens the camera as in the screenshot and it is impossible to take the photo

ideas?

Please post a screenshot of the blocks you’re using to take a photo.

I’m not sure what to suggest. On my iPhone 11, the blocks you have above work just fine. I can take a photo and it appears as the image component’s picture.

I am having the same problem - I have the same blocks as steveo88b, but when I try to run it on Thunkable live, the camera won’t open and nothing happens. I have an iPhone 11, iOS 14, and latest version of Thunkable live installed (version 284-5). If I create an app using the old interface (not the new drag and drop), then the feature works fine. Is this a common bug, is there a way to fix it? Thanks in advance for your help.

No this is not a bug, at least not what is listed.  
Are you checking for errors?

Without seeing what error you have you will be in dark of what to do. It could simply be a permission error or another simple thing but you will never know if your code is not testing for errors.

See this example
