Turn Attention Aware features on or off on your iPhone or iPad Pro

Even if you haven't enrolled in Face ID, the TrueDepth camera* will intelligently activate to support Attention Aware features. With Attention Aware features, iPhone can check whether you're paying attention to your device and take action automatically. For example,

• When you're looking at your device, your display won't dim until you stop looking at it.
• If you're looking at your device, it will lower the volume sound of your alerts.

If you don't want to use these features, open the Settings app, tap Face ID & Passcode, then turn off Attention Aware Features.

*The TrueDepth camera is available on iPhone X or later except for iPhone SE. The iPad Pro 11-inch and iPad Pro 12.9-inch also use the TrueDepth camera.

• Use Face ID to securely unlock your iPhone or iPad, authenticate purchases, sign in to apps and more.
• Use notifications on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.
