Good to know

  1. Camera sounds was already switched on in this recording — the video navigates to the setting and shows it, it does not tap the switch. To silence the shutter, tap that same switch off.
  2. The setting lives in Camera settings, not in Sound & vibration — Settings search is the quickest way to reach it.
  3. The video never opens the Camera app itself; it only shows the setting.
  4. Camera sounds is separate from the other switches on the same page (Save location, Camera scan suggestions, Framing hints) — none of those are changed here.
