How do I turn my iphone screen red?
Turning your iPhone screen red can help reduce blue light exposure, which may make it easier to fall back asleep if you use your phone in the middle of the night. Here’s how you can turn your iPhone screen red using the Color Filters feature in the Accessibility settings:
Step-by-Step Guide to Turn Your iPhone Screen Red
Open Settings: Start by tapping on the "Settings" app on your iPhone.
Go to Accessibility: Scroll down and select "Accessibility."
Select Display & Text Size: Under the Accessibility menu, find and tap on "Display & Text Size."
Enable Color Filters: Scroll down to find "Color Filters" and tap on it. Turn on the toggle switch next to "Color Filters."
Choose Color Tint: Once Color Filters are enabled, a variety of options will appear. Select "Color Tint" from the list.
Adjust the Intensity and Hue: To turn the screen red, slide the "Intensity" and "Hue" sliders all the way to the right. This will create a red-tinted screen that can help minimize blue light exposure.
Quick Access Setup
For even easier access, you can set up a shortcut to toggle the red screen effect on and off:
Return to Accessibility Settings: After completing the steps above, go back to the main "Accessibility" menu.
Select Accessibility Shortcut: Scroll to the bottom and tap on "Accessibility Shortcut."
Choose Color Filters: Check the box next to "Color Filters." Now, you can triple-click the side button (or the home button on older iPhones) to quickly toggle the red screen on and off.
This setup allows you to easily switch to a red screen mode whenever you need to reduce blue light exposure, like during nighttime feedings or diaper changes.
