iPhone 12 Camera Delay

How do I permanently turn of the 3…2…1… delay that comes up at the top of the screen every time you try to take a photo?? It’s SO ANNOYING.

Hello Noellesj,


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. Based on your post, you have a delay when taking photos on your iPhone 12. We'll do our best to assist.


It sounds like the timer is enabled. Open up the Camera app and at the top of your screen, you'll see icons. You'll see a circle with a clock hand in the middle, select this and turn it 'Off' to disable the timer.


See section, 'Use the timer' here: Set up your shot with your iPhone camera


Hoping this helps out, take care!
