Burst photos when timer is on

Whenever I turn on the timer in the camera of my iPhone 6s, it captures multiple photos even if I only tapped the capture button. Why does this happens to my camera? Can anyone help me?

iPhone 6s, iOS 9.0.2

Burst mode is on by default everytime timer is switched on.

You keep the best of 10 photos and delete the rest in Photos (to save space) 🙂

Found this by Googling the question. Tried it and it does work although there will be a flash.

Don't know about the #2, I never hold the capture button down and always get bursts.


How to Disable/Turned off burst mode on iPhone

  1. Turn on the “FLASH”. Burst mode automatically disabled.
  2. Also do not hold the capture button down. Just press and release.
