Has anyone found a way to turn off the shutter sound? I have tried adjusting every volume I can, and haven't been able to find a way to turn this feature off. It's so obvious when you're trying to sneak a funny picture in and this phone makes that loud noise.
you can only disable it by using a different camera app or by using the root method
The shutter sound appears to be controlled by the "Media" volume. Setting it to silent also silences the shutter sound.
One can use the volume buttons while in camera mode to change the "Media" volume".
While this is not as beautiful as a setting option "Disable shutter sound", the lack thereof is not reason enough for me to bother with a custom rom.
Used to be the case in Gingerbread that you could just put the phone into Silent mode and the shutter sound wouldn't trigger.
That is not the case anymore.

What do you mean? That it used to be possible in Gingerbread and that now it is no longer possible in Gingerbread?
It seems to work for me on ICS right now. And the only volume I have to set to Silent is the Media volume. All other volumes can still be on. And the nice thing is that one can change the Media volume directly in camera mode, since the volume keys don't control the zoom.

I mean that putting the phone into silent by pressing and holding the power button and choosing Silent mode used to mute the shutter in Gingerbread, but that does not work in Ice Cream Sandwich.
Hello.
Is there any way to remove shutter sound from other then original camera apps?
I can turn off shutter sound in stock camera app via toggle.
But I hate shutter sound in Google Translate app. For some reason it is extremely loud. And I don't want to set my phone on vibrate/silent just to translate something. (I'm using that application very often (job).
Best regards,
Maciej.
I would also like to add that no volume setting seams to affect that shutter sound in apps.
Hi, has anyone found a way to disable the shutter sound when taking a screenshot on the Moto Z Play?
Sometimes it doesn't do it but haven't found why exactly.
The other way is to use "Total Silence" under Do Not Disturb settings but it's bothersome having to toggle it every time.
By the way, unrelated but what's up with low volume notification sounds? And ringtone takes a while before actually ringing.
Not a bad phone though, just a couple of things that need fixing. Most likely something software can fix.
Does anyone know if the S9 / S9+ offers the ability to turn off the shutter sound when taking photos on all versions (carrier and unlocked)? Does it work on screenshots as well?
Trying to decide which to buy so any info would be great.
I've got S9 and there is no shutter sound when all volume options are turned down.
Nothing for screenshot either, it just vibrates.

EU/UK Exynos single sim SIM unlocked
It all depends on the country. On my Sony, whenever you connect to a Wifi, country is detected and shutter sound can or can't be turned off. Not sure about S9 but should be same behaviour.
There are ways to disable shutter sound totally with root and/or magisk and/or xposed
Unlocked US has shutter sound. No option to disable.
Exynos duos variant (European) - no shutter sound when System volume is off
US Unlocked S9 with VZW SIM, as long as the system volume is off, the camera shutter sound is off. I use Audio Guru and have set all profiles to system volume off, now I can use the camera without shutter no matter which sound profile is active.

Thanks for the information. Does the shutter sound stay off when taking screenshots as well?

It does for me. The phone just vibrates when I capture a screenshot.

What versions of the phone actually have the shutter sound option?
anyone know if the exynos version has the option to disable?
my us ATT S9+ has shutter sound option in camera settings
Verizon S9 has shutter sound option in camera settings
In the US, all carrier phones have a specific firmware that includes features and options not available in the 'Unlocked' version purchased directly from Samsung. You can always have the carrier's firmware flashed to your unlocked phone if you choose. Doing that will give you the option you see on most sites for disabling the shutter sound within the Camera Settings menu.
Thanks, will try as I hate that sound.
I wanted shutter sound off for S9+, even though phone was in a loud mode (not silent or vibrate) so here it is
app--> Settings --->Sounds & Vibrations --> Volume --->System .
On SYSTEM Drag on the slider all the way to left to make it silent/ mute till you see the slash no ringing symbol. This worked for me and should work for you too.
