Camera Turning off the shutter sound

Hi How can I turn off the camera shutter sound when taking pictures? Is there another method where the volume down and mute keys on the side don't work.

iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 14

There are many countries where putting camera shutters to silent is illegal (e.g. Japan)


Hence, if you have bought an iPhone from Japan or any of these countries, you cannot put it off, it has been designed specifically for a country that does not allow shutting off the sound.

"J" means it's made Japan


The other letter and digits in the model number may vary. as an e.g. MT0G2J/A
