【Jesús Franco】

On the iPhone 11,Jesús Franco Apple introduced a very useful camera feature called Night Mode. It automatically turns on when the iPhone detects you're taking a photo in a dark environment, and typically produces a far brighter, better photo.

The key word here is "typically," though. Sometimes, Night Mode will produce a photo that's just too bright (see an example in our review of the iPhone 12), or has smudgy lights, or just completely kills the mood that you were going for.

While it is currently possible to disable Night Mode, you have to wait for it to kick in and then slide the little slider on the bottom of the camera UI to the right to turn it off, only for it to automatically turn on the next time you open the Camera app. This can be annoying if you often find yourself turning off Night Mode to get a more realistic photo.

However, as 9to5Mac has noticed, iOS 15 will let you turn off Night Mode for good. To do that, go to Settings > Camera > Preserve Settings, and then turn on the toggle for Night Mode. That way, your iPhone will remember that you turned off the Night Mode setting, and will keep it off the next time you start the Camera app.

With all of this said, I find the Night Mode one of iPhone's best features. Many phones will often mess up night shots, but my iPhone 12 Pro gets it right almost every time. Still, it's nice to have the option to get rid of it once and for all, should you so desire.

Apple's iOS 15 is currently in beta, and will become widely available this fall.
