Go back to my question iPhone User profile for user: Owenmark Owenmark Author User level: Level 1 23 points 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.

Im guessing when you mean default that means you cannot change or alter it so that it only takes a single shot or reduce the amount of shots taken..bit of a pain in the bum having to go through 40 shots just to save one or two.

There is another way...stop using iPhones and the EXTREMELY annoying features...buy and use another brand. I have been an Apple/Mac user, since 1990 and they are driving me to Samsung, LG or anything that does not gobble memory with FEATURES that cannot be turned off.

Good bye Apple...I will am turning Off BURST forever ❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗

The LIVE button is at the top of the camera screen. I unfortunately do not know which devices support it. I know that turning LIVE photos ON on my iPhone 7plus with iOS 11.# disables burst.

How can I delete the other 9 pictures from my photos? It does not give that option. If you save, it saves all 10. If you delete, it deletes all 10.

Can we just disable bursts?

Hello, thanks for the response. Where do you find "LIVE" photos?
