Hi, The smart aleck response would be to press the right buttons. Now, to be more respectful, what's likely happening is that when you go to press the lock button, you must be holding your iPhone in a manner that has you press the down volume and the side/lock button at the same time. This combination press results in a screen shot being taken. I've done this a few times myself and have forced myself to hold a little lower on the iPhone so that my thumb does not accidentally press the volume button at the same time as my index finger is pressing the side button. It's a fairly normal action as when you go to hit the side button, your thumb also squeezes a little to ensure you have a good grip, thus if your thumb is on the volume button, it will probably also be pressed. So, re-positioning your hand is the best option in my experience. Second, I suggest you go into the Photos app, select Albums from the tabs along the bottom, then up near the top, select the All Photos album. Once in this album, press the Select button then double-tap each photo that is labelled as a Screen Shot. After highlighting them all, there's a Delete button located near the bottom of the screen. This should free up the space used up by all those screen shots.
HTH. Later...

Since I never intentionally take pictures, I can only assume that these photos are generated whenever I lock my phone. Since I frequently lock my phone and always hear the sound of a camera shutter when doing so, I am assuming that I am also taking a picture. Is there any way to lock my iPhone XR without activating the camera every time? Many thanks, Mike -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
