How do you turn off the timer delay on the iPhone camera??

Why do I have to turn off the 2 second timer delay every single time I open the camera app?


It’s on my iPhone 12 mini (yes fully updated) that there is no option to turn off the timer in the Settings > Camera (or in the camera app itself!). Did Apple forget this feature or is this one of those kinds of things where I can’t find my hat because I’m already wearing it on my head???


Any help would be appreciated!

iPhone 12 mini, iOS 14

Settings, Camera, Preserve settings

Toggle the required ones on or off as required to remember or forget settings.

In any event it should it should default to off.

If the settings do not help try powering the phone off then back on.
