How to put a pause after taking a picture?

I'm using AVCapturePhotoOutput to capture with a button click. I checked the built-in camera and found that when camera takes a picture it somewhat pause for a bit.

How can I do that using AVCapturePhotoOutput?

Solution

  • To make a pause after pressing the button:

    self.videoPreviewLayer.connection?.isEnabled = false

    And to prolong the pause a lil bit and unpause:

    DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 0.5, execute: {
    self.videoPreviewLayer.connection?.isEnabled = true
})
