How to Turn off the Camera Sound on iPhone

For most iPhone users, taking photos has become part of their routine, especially because iPhones feature some of the best mobile phone cameras on the market. However, mobile phone cameras, like standalone cameras, may be loud, and every iPhone camera has a shutter click that plays anytime you take a picture. 

However, there are instances when that sound is both unnecessary and unpleasant. If you’re at a meeting or in a crowded space, shooting photos in silence may be preferable. Meanwhile, you need to disable the camera sound yourself because it’s not in default. Below, we’ll delve into how to turn off the camera sound on iPhone. So, stay tuned as we get started;

Here is How to turn off camera sound on iPhone

1. Using Live Photos

Enabling Live Photos in the iPhone Camera app is one of the simplest ways to disable camera sound. When you enable Live Photos, your shutter sound is disabled by default. Now, let’s look at how to go about that;

• Look for the icon for Live Photos
• After that, tap to turn it on
• When the Live Photos button is yellow, it indicates that it is turned on. When the button is white, it indicates that it is turned off. Live Images are different from conventional photos in that they save a short video for each shot you take, which takes up more space than regular photos. If you do not need live photos all of the time, tap to turn them off.
• To fine-tune the control, tap the arrow in the top center and select Auto, On, or Off.
• Finally, go ahead and take a silent photo.

2. Using Ringer Switch

The ringer switch on the upper-left-hand side is another simple technique to turn off iPhone camera sound. When you turn the switch to mute, the iPhone vibrates and a notification appears, indicating that the switch has been turned off. Turning off the ringer mutes all notifications, incoming calls, and other alarms. Follow the steps below to proceed;

• To begin, press and hold the volume button on the phone’s left side until the volume is completely reduced.
• Before snapping a picture, make sure the sound is turned down. The trick is to turn down the volume on your phone before you open the Camera app and begin using it.
• Alternatively, depending on your iPhone model, you may reach the Control Center by swiping up from the bottom of the screen or down from the upper right-hand corner while still in the Camera app.
• Once you’ve arrived, turn down the volume and you’re done.
