When you’re trying to take a photo or video discreetly, the last thing you want is for your iPhone’s camera to make a loud shutter sound. However, by default, the iPhone emits a shutter sound whenever you take a picture. If you’re wondering how to turn down the camera volume on your iPhone, you’re in the right place.
Here are a few simple steps to help you silence the camera volume on your iPhone:
1. Go to your iPhone’s settings and scroll down to find the “Sounds & Haptics” option.
2. Under the “Ringer and Alerts” section, you’ll see a slider for “Change with Buttons.” Turn this off to ensure that the volume buttons on your iPhone won’t adjust the ringer volume.
