Camera took Picture Automatically

[Suvadeep1982]

Suddenly I open the camera app in Galaxy Note 9 and it took a picture automatically without me touching anything.

This never happened before.

Anyone faced this issue?

Any chances my phone is being hacked???

I've also been having this problem over the last year, and it happens on and off only when I'm in the front camera. I have a galaxy, but this also happened on my older galaxy model

I have this exact same problem, it's been 2 years since you posted this, and I was wondering if you fixed it

• I didn't read down much, apologies party peeps, but 2 ways I know of.  Waving your hand over it or running your hand takes pics and screenshots.  Then there's the Find Phone app of your choice, some which snap a pic if somebody finds or nabs your phone!
