Q: My iPhone stops playing music when taking photos?!

HI there...

 

My iPhone 6S seems to stop playing music both from iTunes or Spotify when I open the camera to take a photograph. I assumed there would be some obvious way to allow it to continue playing. It's a bit annoying to be honest! I just want to continue listening to my music whilst taking photogrsphs...

 

I can't find anything on the web... Or on here... Can't find anything on the phone... It didn't happen with my iPhone 5...

 

If anybody knows anything or has any idea if this is actually a design feature or just annoying I'd appreciate any advice!

 

Cheers!

 

Kev

    LOL!!! Definitely NOT A Native English Speaker... looks like translation technology for certain languages needs work. to say the least

     

    Anywho, I just updated with another bug report on the apple feedback page.  There is a growing group of Apple Users in my local starbucks who are rallying around the cry. I try to tell everyone about it .

     

    I was told by Apple Care that we should report it as a BUG REPORT , since it works fine on imessages app but not on the Camera App...

     

    somebody behind (Camera coders?) better get paddled after all this is said and done.  Cheers everyone!

    It is May 3rd 2016 and the music still shuts off when the camera app is opened. Doesn't matter whether live photos is enabled or not. My solution is to use a 3rd party camera app while taking photos. The music stays on for the 3rd party cameras. I actually use ProCamera +HDR as my default camera.

    I'm a new owner of an iPhone 6s Plus and have just discovered this bug. Very, very annoying indeed

    I've reported the bug, let's hope that helps.

    When I saw the IOS 9.3.2 update show up, there was a glimmer of hope that this might finally be fixed.  Nope!  Audio stops when you launch the camera same as before. 

     

    This has me just furious that after all this time, Apple has yet to address this problem.

    Greetings -

     

    Work around found for taking photos!  <And I'm using a 6s on 9.3.2> I downloaded the ProCamera App from the App store - yes it's $5 but it works.  When you run the app for the first time iOS will ask to allow ProCamera have access to location, Camera and Microphone.  Location doesn't matter, but choose yes to camera and microphone.  Once the app is on, quit the app and go to your settings / privacy / microphone /      You will see that ProCamera is selected.  Switch it to OFF.   You're done.  ProCamera will take photos while music still plays either on headphones or bluetooth!  Probably you could select No to allow acces to mic when first running the app but I didn't try that.  Unfortunately, it still won't take video without muting music.

     

    I wanted to use my iPhone as a dash cam while driving but playing music via bluetooth.  So now I'm looking for a video app that does NOT request access to the microphone, and theoretically, that would work.

    Still a problem on my iPhone 6S Plus with iOS 9.3.2 :-(.

     

    What really aggravates me is reading some posts saying this is not a problem because it was designed that way!

    9.3.3 here and still no fix... I put my hope to 10, if there is any.

    I was hopeful when I saw the 9.3.3 update, and it was dashed once again.  Thanks Apple. 

     

    I sent another bug report that will no doubt be summarily ignored.
