How to Use Night Shift Mode on Your iPhone

When your iPhone is in Night Shift mode, the display emits light from the warmer end of the spectrum rather than the default blue light, which can interfere with sleep and strain the eyes. You can manually enable Night Shift mode or set a daily schedule for the feature. Here’s how to use Night Shift:

  • To adjust your Night Shift mode settings or set a schedule, open your Settings app.
  • Tap Display & Brightness.
