IPhone switching to slow-mo during recording.

How can I prevent my iPhone (SE running 15.6.1) switching from normal video recording to slow-mo?


I have the video frame rate set at 25 FPS to eliminates flicker under Australia 50 HTZ artificial light.


The only option for slo-mo FPS is either 120 or 240, which means when the iPhone goes rogue and swaps to slo-mo mid-recording the footage has flicker that isn’t not removed by adjusting the speed bars under EDIT in Photo; and thus the recording is not useable.


I have NEVER deliberately used the slo-mo option. I am not interested in EVER using it.


How can I disable it to prevent this glitch from occurring again?


iPhone SE, iOS 15

Hello valfromdunolly,


Thanks for your post to Apple Support Communities. We understand you have an interesting issue with your Camera app switching video recordings to slow-motion without your intervention. We have a few questions, then some simple steps to start with.


Does the video recording switch to Slo-mo mode while you are actively recording?

Does it record as normal, then plays back in slow-motion?


We'd suggest force closing the Camera app on your iPhone, then restarting it. Sometimes, these steps can help resolve app issues.


Close an app on your iPhone or iPod touch - Apple Support


Restart your iPhone - Apple Support


Keep us updated with how it goes.


Take care.
