Apple

Says the company making vision pro

Follow the screen

Keep your iPhone at arm’s length.

Your grandmother came back from 1995 and told you you’re sitting too close to the Tv. Lol

Hold your phone closer to your face. Eventually, you’ll never see this warning again…

T-Rex vision matters.

I really wanna know how close you hold your phone

Aging will naturally have you move your iphone further and further away to see it.

Your phone no longer wants intimacy

Does this mean Apple also knows when we’re picking our noses?

I hate this message and I find it very annoying, but I’m not turning it off!

lol, read comments to see if anyone suggested replacing iOS with Android but that will probably get me banned from this sub now, even though I have more iPhones now than alternatives

What degree of hypermetropia does this kid have to hold their iphone this goshdang close

I don’t think I can see my phone at arm’s length so maybe my eyesight is already damaged.

Press the button “I’m willing to sacrifice my eyes for more entertainment addiction”

Get some glasses

It will go away with you getting older ;)

I am legally blind and I hold my phone very close to face even though I have glass I can’t read unless it’s very close to my face so this warning would mean I won’t be able to use my phone at all lol thankfully it’s not on by default

Googling is hard isn’t it OP

I’d be one unhappy camper ….don’t even start with me today Siri I swear on everything today’s not the day……

How do I turn it on? This is great

Having the option is awesome thanks for sharing this feature with is

It is in screen time and there you can turn it off

Such a dumb feature

Settings > Screen Time > Screen Distance

Isn’t there an education campaign about this myth in 2010 or something, why apple still believe it?

It’s never turned on by default! Wtf are you trying to achieve here?

How do I get this

Can we talk about the fact Apple wants to to hold your phone at arms length, wtf? That would ache after a few mins of doom scrolling 😂

I have this turned on by choice to help me keep my phone a better distance away from my face. BUT I am also near sighted so at night lying in bed I get this warning every 2-3 minutes. VERY ANNOYING. Like can I get a setting where I can set this to a certain time like the day when my glasses are on my face and off at night when I just want to browse reddit in bed. By the way typing this message earned me two more visits from the warning about being too close to my face.

By keeping your phone further away from your face.

Is OP holding his phone like this?

Screen time Distance Turn it off That’s all

Read what it says, it literally tells you.

Time to buy longer iArms

It’s the thing you enabled and you get rid of it by disabling at the same you enabled it. 🤡

Google?

Fuck I’m blind, even with glasses I can’t see my phone that far away…

Dont look at the phone

Can you read?

You could take two nails and run them through your eyeballs. This will prevent the message from occurring :D You can just turn it off in the settings. I however suggest not to.

You can buy an android and problem solved

Seriously though, who actually holds their phone at arm's length? That's just too far.
