My iPhone is taking screenshots by itself

My new iPhone 12 mini is doing two things on its own that I wish to stop but I don’t know how:

1) Taking screenshots

2)Reading the page I am on from top to bottom


Does anyone else have this issue? Any ideas how to stop it?

iPhone 12 mini, iOS 14

Smart Phones neither have the intelligence nor has the hostility. Hence we need to look at our device settings and the way we synchronise our smart phones with Mac/PC/iCloud and also how careful are we in sharing our sensitive and valuable informations with friends and family members.


Be careful when sharing the device's sensitive and valuable informations with friends and family members.


Thumb Rules:

  1. Enable  Guided Access before handing over an iPhone to kids
  2. Don't share Apple IDs
  3. Don't Jail Break
  4. Don't share sensitive informations pertaining to your device and payment methods
  5. Beware of Phishing
