samsung s20 fe 5g front camera blinking

[userXfPtgWerfB]

I noticed that around the front camera blinks in black. I don't know what this happens.

it's looking to see if you are watching the screen so it stays on

Can you provide a screenshot of what are you looking at so I can better assist?

Does this happen to any other apps that use the front camera?

Gestures and motions under setting and uncheck keep screen on while viewing. Thst should take care of the lens flickering in front.

That makes sense! It only began happening after I changed my settings so the screen stays on while I'm looking at it. Thank you.

I have the same issue. I can't get it to stop and I just got my phone yesterday

I have the same problem.  It looks like the shutter on a camera as it opens to focus and take a pucture.

Mine does the same thing!

Same here, what's happening?

It's your Smart Stay. It's checking to make sure you're still looking at the screen. Turn it off in your settings under gestures and it will stop.
