If you own an iPhone 11 Pro Max and want to take photos discreetly without the camera sound, you may have noticed that muting the phone doesn’t always mute the camera shutter sound. This can be frustrating, especially in quiet environments where the sound can be disruptive. Fortunately, there are ways to silence the camera sound on your iPhone 11 Pro Max.
One method is to switch your iPhone to silent mode by toggling the switch on the side of the device. However, this may not always mute the camera sound. Another option is to turn down the volume on your phone before taking a photo, but this can be cumbersome and easily forgotten. Luckily, there is a simple workaround that allows you to disable the camera sound completely.
To mute the camera sound on your iPhone 11 Pro Max, go to Settings, select Sounds & Haptics, and toggle off the “Lock Sound” option. This will silence the camera shutter sound without affecting other sounds on your device. Now you can take photos quietly and without any distractions.
