how to disable camera on lock screen How do I disable the camera swipe and camera icon on the lock screen? My child is accessing the camera and taking pictures with my phone when I am not looking. There is a potential for abuse here by my child. if there is not a solution, then there should be an iOS update for this feature request. Imagine the possibility of a child using the phone inappropriately. I charge my phone in my office and don't sleep with it next to me, so there are times there is access to the phone and lock screen.

How to Disable Camera on Lock Screen iPhone 12 Mini, iOS 15.5. The subject is the question, and this is directed towards Apple. The workarounds found on Youtube, etc. are less than ideal (disabling it all together and having to enable it again every time you do want to take a photo are lousy solutions). Does Apple have any intention or plan to allow users to disable this? It wastes memory with photos taken of the inside of my pocket. It would allow anyone to fill the memory of an iPhone without unlocking it. If Apple does not intend or plan to address this, please Apple, tell us why not. Maybe you have a good reason.

You can't. There is no option to disable the Camera App.

The most you can do, is put the device in DownTime through Settings->Screen Time, and remove the Camera from the allowed Apps.
