Ive been ordered to disable the shutter sound on my iphone or or get rid of my phone

All of my roommates have ordered me to disable the shutter sound on my iPhone 11. Failing that, they demand that I cease using the camera for any reason at all or throw my phone away. I can’t afford to replace my phone. How do I disable this horrible sound?

iPhone 11, iOS 17

Use the ring/silent switch on the side of the phone.

If your phone was originally sold in Japan or South Korea, it is impossible to silence the shutter sound. It is illegal to do so in those countries and devices sold there can’t be silenced, even if used outside of that country.
