Screen Time Now Has Screen Distance

Did you know that using your iPhone too close to your face might cause some eye strain if you’re an adult? Moreover, if you’re a child, doing this might cause myopia.

This is clearly a serious topic, which is why Apple is introducing a new feature called Screen Distance.

This feature will be part of Screen Time and will constantly scan for how close your face is to your iPhone. If you’re using your iPhone too close to your eyes for a long period of time, your iPhone will let you know about it and hopefully help you with your sight.

It’s worth mentioning that this feature only works with iPhones that have a TrueDepth camera. If you have an older iPhone, you won’t be able to use this feature.
