How to Turn Off the Music During an iPhone Picture Slideshow

The slideshow feature in the Photos app on your iPhone 6 is a great way to passively look at a group of your photos.

Simply select the pictures that you want to include in the slideshow, and the device will play them for you. It will even add background music to the experience.

But if you find the music to be distracting or not suited to your taste, then you can choose to view the picture slideshow without any of that music.

Our guide below will show you where to find this setting from within the slideshow while it is playing.
