You can temporarily disable the Night Mode (supported on the iPhone 11 and iPhone 12 series) by tapping on the yellow Night Mode icon when it shows up at the top left corner of the viewfinder. But, it will turn on again the next time you open the Camera app, which is what irks many users.
Up until iOS 14, there hadn’t been a way to disable automatic Night Mode on iPhone. But that has changed for good in iOS 15. So, if your iPhone is running iOS 15, you can prevent this camera feature from activating without your permission. To do that, just follow the steps given below.
