Sometimes you might want to take a selfie or capture some other thing on camera without making a noise. However, our smartphone cameras are programmed by default to make a shutter sound whenever we take pictures. You might want to turn this off on your smartphone. On some phones, it is as simple as dialling down your notification volume, or putting your phone on silent mode. However, it might not be so simple in some other phones. Here’s how to turn off shutter sound on various smartphones. Note that this is illegal in some countries, so be mindful of that.

HUAWEI

On certain Huawei devices, you need to go to the camera app, tap the menu icon, then the settings button. Next, go to Mute and enable it, which will disable the camera sound. On the Honor 8, you can either use the above method or simply use the volume keys.
