[Karadza.]

If you are a user of an Apple gadget from the past few years, you enjoy the presence of True Tone. This option increases the accuracy of the displayed colors and reports in real-time light to the ambient light. If you use True Tone on iPhone, you'd better know how to disable it.

Apple introduced True Tone for the first time in the iPad Pro series introduced in 2017. In the same year, it also ported it to iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone X. In 2018, it reached the MacBook Pro. No matter what gadget you use, True Tone works the same way.

Using a range of ambient light sensors, the Apple device reads the light intensity of the surrounding area and its temperature to maintain the color accuracy for the on-screen content. So, if you're in a cold blue gas station, you'll see cooler colors displayed on the screen along with louder brightness. If you stand out at sunset, the screen light will have a yellowish tinge and become less aggressive to offset what's happening in the environment.

In addition to the fact that on-screen images will be more accurate and consistent, the experience of using an extended gadget will have less impact on the health of the eyes. In practice, the True Tone feature is the pinnacle of a mix of options that work like what you see on the screen of your phone or tablet seem to be getting closer to reality.

But there are circumstances in which you might want to disable True Tone. When you take a picture or edit an image, True Tone has the potential to distort reality. You hurt what you see on the screen is not what it gets to a customer, for example.

Fortunately, the solution is one that involves only a few touches. Go to Settings or Settings in the Display & Brightness section. Uncheck True Tone at the top of the screen or activate it if you have never taken advantage of it as needed.
