Step by step

1. 

   Open the camera menu

   Tap the three lines at the top right.

   Done

2. 

   Tap Settings

   The gear is in the menu.

   Done

3. 

   Switch Shutter sound off

   It is under General.

   Done

If you do not see this option

• Looking in the phone's Settings? The switch is in the Camera's own Settings, from the three lines at the top right.
• Row not where you expect? On ours it is under General, between Composition assistance and Mirror selfie.

If this does not work

• Switch missing? Scroll the Camera Settings list from the top; the General group comes first on ours.
• On OxygenOS 14? The OnePlus manual lists Shutter sound in the Camera settings too. Source: OxygenOS 14.0 User Manual
