When we take a photo with the camera of our Android phone, a noise is emitted, indicating that a photo has been taken. There may be times when we wish this noise was gone. Because we want to take a photo in a place where we should not or at a time that would not be the most appropriate. We can remove said sound from the camera, in a number of ways.
Below we show you the options we have available to mute the camera on Android. So when you go to take a photo with your phone, no sound will be emitted, which is exactly what we want in this case. There are several options, which surely fit what you are looking for.
Mute the phone
One option that works for most brands on Android is to mute the phone. If we remove the sound from our phoneBy making it silent or vibrating, the device's camera is not going to make a noise when we take a photo with it. So it is a very simple option to use in this type of case.
The bad news is that it is something that does not work on all brands on Android. There are marks in which even though the device is silent, the camera will continue to emit a noise when a photo is taken. Also if you have the phone vibrating this will happen. So for many users it is a method that is not going to work for them.
Camera settings on Android
We can resort to camera app settings on the phone itself. Again, this is something that is not available from all brands. But there are brands of phones on Android that allow you to silence the camera, which does not make noise when taking photos, from the camera's own settings. It is a very comfortable and simple option that meets the desired objective in this case.
To do this, we have to open the camera application and then enter the settings of it. In these settings we can find a section called Silence. In some brands it can also be called Mute or Mute Shutter, it depends on the customization layer that is used. The only thing that will have to be done in this case is to activate this option. When we use the camera, it will not emit any noise.
Whenever we want we can deactivate the option again, we just have to go back into the camera settings. So you will not have problems in this regard when using this function.
Open Room
If our Android phone does not give us this possibility, we can use third-party applications, that make the camera application have the possibility of being muted. There are quite a few options in the Play Store, although an application that works well and is easy to use is Open Camera. It is a camera application that we can install on our phone, which will replace the camera application that we have by default in it. It provides us with a series of additional functions.
When we have installed it on the phone, we have to enter its settings. In its settings there is a section called More camera controls, where we find several options. One of the options is to remove the shutter sound, which allows the sound of the camera to be eliminated when taking photos. In this way, we can take photos without the camera making noise at some point. Very easy to use in this regard.
Downloading Open Room on Android it is free. In addition, inside the application there are no purchases or advertisements of any kind, which allows a much more comfortable use of it at all times. So it can be a good option if neither of the other two previous options have given the expected result for users.
