JAKARTA - Turning off the camera sound on your iPhone is something you might want to do right now. Because the sound that appears is quite disturbing for some people.
The sound doesn't really add anything of value, and is loud when shooting at night or in quiet places. This is similar to the screenshot sound, which is useless.
Unfortunately, every iPhone camera comes with a shutter click that plays every time you take a photo. Sometimes the sound is an unneeded and unwanted distraction.
Even when you're at a meeting, photographing animals, or in a crowded room, you may prefer to shoot in silence. For those situations, you can mute iPhone camera sound in most countries. Here's how to do it.
How to Mute Camera Sound with Live Photos
One of the easiest ways to turn off camera sound is to enable Live Photos in the iPhone's Camera app. When Live Photos is enabled, your shutter sound will be turned off by default.
1. Find the Live Photos icon. In iOS 15, the Live Photos controls are a series of white circles at the top right of the screen.
2. Tap to turn it on. Later the yellow Live badge can be seen immediately. Then tap again to turn it off. The Live Off badge will appear white for a moment.
3. Tap the Yellow arrow in the top center to fine-tune the Live Photos control to Auto, On or Off.
4. Next, you can shoot discreetly by tapping the round white shutter button. Make sure, you don't abuse this thing to take pictures.
How to Mute Camera Sound with Volume Keys
Next to how to use the volume buttons, this sounds quite easy but still requires a trick that you must understand. Also make sure, your volume buttons are also still working properly.
1. Use Volume keys. Hold down the hardware volume button on the left side of the phone until you see the screen-based volume indicator drop all the way down. But you have to do it at the right time, and if you do it in the iOS 14 or 15 camera app, the camera will start recording video.
2. Be sure to lower the volume before taking a photo. The real trick is to reduce the volume before you open the camera app.
3. Or, while you're still in the camera app, you can scroll down from the top right corner (on iOS 14 or 15) to reach Control Center.
4. Once you are here, you can use the Slider to turn off the volume.
Different Rules in Each Country
Keep in mind, in some countries especially Japan and South Korea, the camera shutter sound will stay on all the time.
Muting the shutter is not allowed, and phones bought and sold there are tailored for that market to guarantee total privacy, which will stop unknown or unauthorized recording or shooting.
While this is not a law, Japanese manufacturers and wireless providers have agreed to make phones that make a different sound every time you launch or use the camera.
If you live in or visit these certain countries, your camera app will make a sound even if you try to mute your iPhone camera. This was quoted from Digital Trends, Tuesday, April 19.
