Mirror Front Camera toggle still has no effect

The front camera on my iPhone 14 Pro is always mirrored, despite the Mirror Front Camera setting being turned off. I’ve closed all apps, shut off the phone, and installed the latest upgrade (iOS 16.3 (20D47)). No change.

Thanks. I get it now, but I think that toggle setting is very poorly worded by Apple. Mirror Front Camera implies that when it is set to On the camera and the image on screen are mirrored, and when it is Off they are not mirrored.


In reality, the camera and screen image are always mirrored, but the photo it takes is not mirrored when the setting is Off.
