Are you tired of missing out on perfect photo moments because you were too slow to click the shutter button? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered!
In this tutorial, we will show you how to put a timer on your iPhone camera, so you can capture those precious moments with ease. Let’s get started!
Step 1: Open the Camera App
First, locate the Camera app on your iPhone’s home screen and tap on it to open it. The camera app icon usually looks like a small camera and is placed in the bottom right corner of your screen.
Step 2: Access the Timer Option
Once you have opened the Camera app, look for a small clock icon located at the top of your screen. Tap on it to access the timer options.
Note:
If you can’t see the clock icon, don’t panic! It might be hidden under additional options. Swipe left or right to see more options until you find it.
Step 3: Choose a Timer Duration
After tapping on the clock icon, you will see different timer duration options appear on your screen. These options usually include a 3-second timer, a 5-second timer, and a 10-second timer.
Note: The timer duration indicates how long your iPhone will wait after pressing the shutter button before capturing the photo.
TIP:
If you want more time to get into position or gather everyone for a group photo, choose a longer timer duration. If you are taking selfies or capturing fast-moving subjects, opt for a shorter timer duration.
Step 4: Select Your Timer Duration
To select your desired timer duration, simply tap on the option that best suits your needs. Once you have made your selection, the timer option will close automatically.
Step 5: Capture Your Photo
Now that you have set the timer, it’s time to frame your shot and get ready for the photo! Place your iPhone on a stable surface or use a tripod to avoid any unwanted camera shake.
Note: If you are taking a selfie or capturing a group photo, make sure everyone is in position before pressing the shutter button.
Step 6: Countdown and Capture
Once you press the shutter button, you will notice a countdown animation on your screen. The number of seconds left before the photo is captured will be displayed prominently.
TIP: Use this countdown time to perfect your pose or adjust any last-minute details.
Step 7: Review Your Photo
After the countdown ends, your iPhone will capture the photo automatically. You can now review it by tapping on the thumbnail image located at the bottom left corner of your screen.
Note:
If you are not satisfied with the photo, you can delete it by tapping on the trash icon or retake it by tapping on the circular arrow icon. To save the photo to your Camera Roll, tap on the “Done” button located at the bottom right corner of your screen.
