Live Photo will not stay off

I have this same problem. I keep turning off live photo but find that every photo is still in live photo. Live photo is a total waste of time and storage space. There should be an option to permanently remove live photo as an option! Live photo is a total waste of time. I think that I am probably accidentally hitting the live photo button each time I take a picture. That in and of itself is a design flaw. The same with HDR. I keep hitting that button unbeknown to me. This is a flaw. I do not want to take pictures with these options and they should not keep coming on! Apple needs to fix this and allow the user to remove these absolutely useless and time-consuming options!
