i have a recent problem
for the sake of privacy, im going to share a similar scenario: moe, a local builder, keeps throwing trash in my dumpster and filling it up, causing inconvenience for me. i have accused him of doing this, but he denies it.
he did this again late at night. when i go to record him, the camera video recording sound makes the loudest darn boop-bleep sound ever, and he's startled, drives away and i get frustrated and go back. He comes back 3 minutes later and dumps the trash while im inside.
A lot of times in an emergency if someone needs to record something (evil dumper, corrupt government official), the recording needs to happen fast within seconds. even do not disturb doesn't turn off this loud sound and trying to turn off the sound manually takes 3 seconds that can be important.
can there be a toggle to turn this off? for instance, i never get pulled over, but i have a different looking friend and he always gets pulled over by racists. it would help if he can press the camera record quickly without a loud obvious startling noise.
the camera video record also stops if any other app is open. there's no way to simultaneously start a recording quickly without a loud sound and quickly call a lawyer while the recording continues.
im asking for a friend
