What Is True Tone Display On iPhone? Should I Turn It On? Here's The Truth!

Two Apple experts explain what True Tone Display is on your iPhone and explain whether or not you should turn it on.

True Tone Display is a feature that automatically matches the color of your iPhone's display to the lighting around you. This feature is currently only available on the iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, and iPhone X.

The reason I clicked on this video was that I wanted to know what true tone display is, what are its functions and etc. So this video was completely useless. Please try better next time!

I think most people just don’t know how to use True Tone... myself included, until I watched a different video (no offense to these guys.) The warmer looking screen is better for reading text like if your reading an ebook on your smart device. While turning off True Tone is better for taking photos and watching videos because you get a truer color of what image really is. Hopefully this helped without being condescending.

This was like my Dad and uncle trying to explain technology.

we know that already, the video didn't explain should I turned it on or off​, how is it affecting battery etc.

[YoungForeignAli]

You didn’t even answer the question smh 🤦🏻‍♂️

From what I found. How noticeable it is greatly depends on the color temperature of the lighting in your room.for example I noticed if I’m on a room that has a fluorescent lighting with “Cool White” color temp then the true is very very subtle. But if the fluorescent (GE) lighting is “Day light” then the display also is a bit reddish or a magenta tint is there. If I turn off the True Tone the display becomes more bluish I would say.

When they said thank you for watching I was kinda yeah they are joking, but they really end the video without explanation

Apparently you’re supposed to have it on when editing video because the colours around you influence how you see the colours on the screen. The True Tone adjustment tries to change the screen temperature so that you see the most accurate colours in any environment.

Warmer color - less strain for your eyes, so better at night readers
Cooler color - better at daytime

The feature tries to match the color temperature and intensity of your device's display to that of the ambient light in your surroundings. This allows the content on your screen to appear more natural, while also, at least Apple hopes, reducing eye strain.

So is it necessary to have it on or does it just use more of my battery power? Also, does it affect the look or color of my videos when I record them?

[amanieldanielson]

That shirt!! Y’all been pushin 🅿️ for years

[shawne]

I’ve never read the comments before watching a video and something told me to do it this time...glad I did!

[mikaeldurani]

Does it effect your phone bad or good? Or is it just something you can chose depending on your likeing?
