To make the shutter sound on your iPhone 6s, you need to open the Camera app first. Locate the Camera app icon on your home screen and tap on it to launch the camera.
Select the desired shooting mode
Before taking a photo with your iPhone 6s, you need to select the shooting mode that best suits your needs. To do this, open the Camera app on your device and swipe left or right to switch between different shooting modes. Here are some of the common shooting modes available on the iPhone 6s:

Frame your shot
Before taking a photo, make sure to frame your shot properly. This means considering the composition, lighting, and subject of your photo. To create a visually appealing image, try using the rule of thirds to place your subject off-center. You can also experiment with different angles and perspectives to add interest to your photos.
Pay attention to the background of your shot as well, making sure there are no distracting elements that take away from your subject. Use leading lines or framing elements to draw the viewer’s eye to the main focal point of your photo.
Tap the shutter button
To capture a photo with your iPhone 6s camera, simply tap the shutter button on the screen or the volume buttons on the side of the device. The shutter sound will indicate that the photo has been taken. Make sure to hold the device steady while tapping the shutter button to avoid blurry images.

This sound indicates that the camera has successfully taken the photo. If you don’t hear the shutter sound, check the volume on your device to ensure it’s not muted or turned down too low.
Listening for the shutter sound can be helpful in noisy environments where it may be difficult to see the visual indication that a photo has been taken. It provides an audible confirmation that the camera has done its job, allowing you to focus on capturing the perfect shot without constantly checking the screen.
