Will I be able to turn off the camera shutter sound if I install GOS on my Japan version Pixel 6a?

    kyi92 Yes. I have a 6a bought in Japan and I can disable the sound in the GOS Camera App settings ๐Ÿ˜‰

      kyi92 I could not tell as I only use the GOS Camera. However, if itโ€™s the case for the GOS app, it should also be the case for GCam.

        boarim With GOS camera things are cut and dry, but with Google Camera on Japanese Pixels it's unclear how the restriction is being enforced.

        I own a japanese Pixel 6a and can say that disabling the camera shutter sound works flawlessly with gcam on GOS. This may or may not be a locale thing (?) but that's just speculation from my side, I do not have my pixel set to japanese and I also did not use a japanese google account to get gcam from the play store.
        I also still have the sound enabled as having it disabled in Japan is kind of... sus...?

          Malternative just read up on that linked reddit search, I do use a japanese sim, and its still a relatively new install so it may or may not activate in the future (?)
