Discover the benefits of True Tone for your Apple devices

Have you ever had trouble reading your screen in bright sunlight? Or noticed that the colors on your screen look different at night than they do during the day? These are common issues that Apple has addressed with the introduction of True Tone technology. In this blog post, we’ll take a closer look at what True Tone is, how it works, and what benefits it brings to your everyday use of Apple devices. We’ll also discuss which Apple products support True Tone and give you tips on how to get the most out of this technology. Let’s get started by better understanding True Tone and how it works.

What is True Tone and how does it work?

True Tone is a technology developed by Apple to automatically adjust the color temperature of the displays on your Apple devices to match the light around you. This means that the display on your iPhone , iPad , or Mac Book always looks natural and comfortable, no matter what lighting conditions you’re in. True Tone uses advanced ambient light sensors to measure and adjust the color temperature of your display in real time. These sensors measure both the brightness and color of the light around you and adjust the color of your display accordingly. The result is a display that always looks natural and easy on your eyes, whether you’re working in bright sunlight, under fluorescent lights, or by candlelight.

The benefits of True Tone

True Tone offers several benefits for Apple device users:
  • Consistent color reproduction
    With True Tone, the colors on your screen always look consistent and natural, regardless of the lighting conditions. This is especially useful for people who do a lot of image editing and graphic design.
  • More comfortable for the eyes
    By adjusting the color temperature of your screen to match the ambient light, True Tone makes looking at your screen less tiring for your eyes. This allows you to work or relax comfortably on your Apple device for longer.
  • Better readability in different lighting conditions
    Whether you're outside in bright sunlight or indoors with mood lighting, True Tone ensures your screen is always easy to read.

Apple products that support True Tone

True Tone is available on several Apple devices, including:

If you have one of these devices or are considering buying one, you can enjoy the benefits of True Tone. Refurbished Apple products with True Tone are also available at leapp.co.uk.

Tips for getting the most out of True Tone

To get the most out of True Tone, follow these tips:
  1. Check if True Tone is enabled
    Go to Settings > Display & Brightness (on iPhone and iPad) or System Preferences > Displays (on Mac) and make sure the True Tone option is enabled.
  2. Use Night Shift together with True Tone
    Night Shift is another Apple feature that adjusts the color temperature of your screen at night to reduce blue light and improve your sleep. You can use Night Shift and True Tone together for an even more comfortable viewing experience.
  3. Experiment with the brightness of your screen
    While True Tone automatically adjusts the color temperature of your screen, you can still manually adjust the brightness of your screen to find the ideal balance between color and brightness.
