Sound volume.

[Daio76]

When I want to take a quick photo by pressing the two side buttons on my Samsung galaxy s21, sound volume bar keeps popping up spoiling the whole picture. Is there anyway I can remove that grey sound bar? There is so much I don't understand so don't want to mess up anything by messing with the system.

On the S23 one can choose just the side button to open the camera. Not sure if you can on S21. Mine is in settings>advanced features>side button.

A53 5g press the down button and power button at the same time takes a screen shot not sure about actually taking a photo without opening the camera. that's why you might be getting the volume slide option

They're referring to screenshots here I think

Ahh yes think you're right. Just need to practice then, i suppose i can be a bit tricky to press them simultaneously. If the S21 is anything like the S23, you can also access the screenshot function from the pull down quick access panel.

For pictures I'm pretty sure all Samsung phones have this.
For screen shot I find the most easily to access it it's by swiping the side bar.
