RE: Screen brightness.
Ah, yes, I did mean LCD. Sorry about that. You're right, brightness will impact battery life when using an LCD display. I should have said that a dark screen or VoiceOver's screen curtain wouldn't impact battery life on an older iPhone, but brightness would. -- Christopher (AKA CJ) =>÷ Chaltain at Outlook, USA From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Tuesday, October 4, 2022 10:13 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Screen brightness. Hi Christopher, You probably meant to say "with LCD displays" since as far as I know iPhones went from LCD to OLED, I am not aware there was ever an iPhone with a regular LED display. Also, it apparently does make a difference with LCD screen iPhones how bright your screen is because as you say the brightness of an LCD screen is determined by the amount of backlighting and if you were to set it manually to be 100% then I do believe you may in fact notice a difference as opposed to having it set to 0%.

RE: Screen brightness.
Actually I have Bluetooth on all the time because I have an Apple Watch and also because I find it inconvenient to turn it on each time I want to use a Bluetooth headset or speaker or maybe my keyboard. It may depend a bit on what type of Bluetooth device you have connected, but for the most part Bluetooth being on should only use up a very small amount of extra power. By now my iPhone 11 which I have had for 2 years is down to 85% battery capacity, but if my phone is fully charged in the morning I still easily get through the day and I use my phone quite a bit. Maybe if I had to use a GPS app for a couple of hours each day I would have problems getting all the way to 9 or 10 PM, but I honestly couldn't care less if my battery in the evening is still at 40% or at 20% or 15% because I have a smart phone because I want its convenience features and this includes having Bluetooth and Wi-Fi on, it means having location services turned on for most apps and also to use background app refresh at least for some of the apps I use a lot. It also means that I set my two email accounts to Push which definitely takes up more battery than if I checked them only once an hour or manually, in fact it probably uses up more power than having Bluetooth on does.

RE: Screen brightness.
Hi Richard, I think your statement that battery life goes down "much faster" without screen curtain is relative. I highly doubt you could show that say in a two hour time period it would go down by 6% without screen curtain and only by 4% with screen curtain. You also would have to replicate exactly the same conditions, say you turn on airplane mode so nothing else may use more power during one test as opposed to the other test, then maybe play a downloaded movie of about a 2 hour length on your iPhone, first with screen curtain turned off and then with screen curtain on. I would also make sure the phone is fully charged to 100% before you start and then see what your percentage is after the 2-hour movie for both scenarios. From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Richard Turner Sent: Tuesday, October 4, 2022 6:19 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Screen brightness. Well, my experience is that if I set my phone to use auto brightness under settings, accessibility, display and text size; and use the screen curtain, the brightness is always at zero unless I turn off the screen curtain. I seem to get better battery life than many, and I notice the battery life going down when my screen curtain is off for an extended time. Often because my wife wanted to see something on my phone and I forgot to turn the screen curtain back on. During those times, the battery drain is much faster than when I have the screen curtain on and using the phone the same way. Can I prove it? no.

Hi Christopher, You probably meant to say "with LCD displays" since as far as I know iPhones went from LCD to OLED, I am not aware there was ever an iPhone with a regular LED display. Also, it apparently does make a difference with LCD screen iPhones how bright your screen is because as you say the brightness of an LCD screen is determined by the amount of backlighting and if you were to set it manually to be 100% then I do believe you may in fact notice a difference as opposed to having it set to 0%.

RE: Screen brightness.
I don't think you will notice a huge difference whether you have it set to dark mode or light mode. If you have a phone with OLED screen there might be a very small difference since apparently dark pixels use up less power, but it would be quite minimal. Of course you may as well set it to dark mode. As for screen brightness I would recommend you set it to auto and then if you want to make the most of it you can turn on screen curtain by tapping 3 times with 3 fingers. As soon as iOS detects that screen curtain is on brightness will be automatically set to 0%, but if you ever need help with the phone then as soon as you turn off screen curtain with a 3-finger triple tap the screen brightness will be at a level which should make it easy for a sighted person to see it. You can of course also turn off Voiceover which will then automatically remove the screen curtain since that is a Voiceover feature so if Voiceover is not running screen curtain is also not there to black out the screen.

RE: Screen brightness.
Well, my experience is that if I set my phone to use auto brightness under settings, accessibility, display and text size; and use the screen curtain, the brightness is always at zero unless I turn off the screen curtain. I seem to get better battery life than many, and I notice the battery life going down when my screen curtain is off for an extended time. Often because my wife wanted to see something on my phone and I forgot to turn the screen curtain back on. During those times, the battery drain is much faster than when I have the screen curtain on and using the phone the same way. Can I prove it? no. Can anyone convince me it doesn’t make a difference having the screen brightness at zero when using the screen curtain? No. Richard, USA. “Reality is the leading cause of stress for those who are in touch with it.” -- Jane Wagner from The Search for Intelligent Life in the Universe My web site: <https://www.turner42.com> https://www.turner42.com From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Christopher Chaltain Sent: Tuesday, October 4, 2022 5:47 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Screen brightness.

Re: Screen Brightness
If you are a user of the screen curtain, and you have auto brightness on, and set to zero. Then when you turn off the screen curtain, the brightness will increase, so a sighted person can see the screen. Then when you turn on the screen curtain again, it should set it back to zero. The only time this may change, is if you are someone who turns off their phone over night. Then you may need to check your brightness, after turning your phone back on. Dave.

Re: Screen Brightness
But if you have auto brightness turned on, and your screen curtain on, it should turn down the brightness to zero. From: Sandy Finley Sent: Tuesday, March 12, 2019 3:19 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Screen Brightness Susie, a word or two more about screen brightness vs. screen curtain on/off. The quickest, simplest way to change brightneess is, indeed, with SIRI. You may also want to know that setting brightness to zero saves battery power, while having brightness raised to 50% or 75% and turning on your screen curtain does not save battery. The screen curtain is a voice over feature whose purpose, I think, is to provide privacy for the VO user who will not know if someone is looking over her shoulder when using her phone in a public place.

I had autobrightness turned on, but founda few times where it was still going anywhere from 40% to 60% or whatever even with screen curtain on. Didn't feel like dealing with the hassle of always checking to make sure the feature worked as it should and simply went back to disabling autobrightness all together.

Re: Screen Brightness Annoyance When Rebooting iPhone 8 Plus
Hello Mary, I do the same as you, but a few people had their screen curtain on, and this seem to keep their brightness at zero for them. So I gave it a try, and as I previously stated, it did not work out for me.

That is exactly what auto brightness is supposed to do, but at some point Apple did make it so that when screencurtain was turned on brightness would get set to 0% regardless whether auto brightness was turned on or not.

Re: Screen Brightness Annoyance When Rebooting iPhone 8 Plus
Hello Mark, I am running the latest ios on an iPhone 8, and I have seen many brightness issues ever since I have updated to ios 12. And I have tested it, it does not matter whether screen curtain is on or off. Here is what I have seen: * Ever time I restart my phone, and I just tested this again, my phone brightness is set to 100%. And this happens whether screen curtain is on or off and if auto brightness is on or off. * If I have auto brightness on, my brightness will increase from time to time, even if I have screen curtain on. For example, I would turn it down to 0, and check later on, sometimes it would still be at 0, and sometimes I found it at 35%. If I turned it back down to 0, things would just repeat itself after some time. So I was forced to turn auto brightness off. I understand that not everybody and all phones see this behavior, but it is happening. I do not understand why, and even though I would guess that Apple would have a hard time reproducing it, I have submitted the problem to them in hopes that it might be resolved in a future update.

Screen Brightness Annoyance When Rebooting iPhone 8 Plus
Hello Everyone, I think I saw something about this, on-list, a while ago but cannot remember. So I'll ask: When I reboot my iPhone 8 Plus, running iOS 12.01, the screen brightness resets to zero or as low as it can go. Does anyone know why this is happening? I have rebooted the phone with and without VoiceOver enabled and the behavior of the screen brightness, at reboot, remains the same. I have spent some time researching Google but, aside from one or two comments, dated back at the beginning of the year, I cannot locate any reason/solution for this. I don't remember this being a problem before the iOS 12.01 update. As always, all replies greatly appreciated. Mark -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

Re: Screen brightness.

Re: Seeing AI and Screen Brightness
Unless you had turned the phone around so the back was facing you, you were using the front facing camera. Apparently screen brightness does interfere with that one. I, like others, assumed you were using the back camera for something like short text, etc. Richard (Sent from the iPod Touch 6) On Oct 1, 2017, at 9:22 AM, Kelby Carlson <kelbycarl...@gmail.com<mailto:kelbycarl...@gmail.com>> wrote: I tried the "person" setting.

RE: Adjusting screen brightness
I used to have auto brightness turned off keeping my brightness at around 10% for those situations where I had to show something to a sighted person. For a while now I turned on auto brightness and I have not noticed any difference in battery life. In fact, often when I check the brightness I find it is very low which goes to show that it doesn't have to be at 30 or 40% to be ideal for sighted people. Just now, for example, I am in the bedroom, the light is not on, but curtains are open and it's daylight outside yet brightness with auto brightness turned on is only at 5%. The other day I checked at night when it was completely dark and it was in fact at 0%. All in all I find this is much more convenient because I can easily hand the phone to a sighted person to show them a picture or a boarding pass at the airport without having to first fiddle with it. If I want complete privacy I just turn on the screen curtain.

Are you on the beta program? I am, and for no good reason at all, I wonder if installing a new beta resets the brightness for some reason.

Screen brightness setting not sticking? Has anyone else seen this?
Hi, I have recently noticed that at times my battery degrades a lot faster than usual. Since I don't need to see the screen, I always turn my brightness setting to 0, and this makes quite a difference to battery life. Since updating to iOS8.0.2 I have noticed that the brightness setting frequently changes of its own accord. If you periodically check your screen brightness setting, found in the Control Centre, does it change of its own accord? I am intending to write to Apple about this issue, but wanted to confirm if it is a common bug or one that only effects a couple of people.

Hi, make sure that the auto brightness is off. Go into settings, and swipe right until you get to display, and brightness. Double tap on this option, and swipe to the slide, you can adjusted to what you want it to be, swipe to the right, and make sure that auto brightness is off.

Re: Screen brightness setting not sticking? Has anyone else seen this?
Set the screen brightness to z percent in the settings, under visual. That should clear the problem. It's been a while since I looked, but it seems like there is also a setting to automatically adjust the screen brightness. If there is, turn it off. HTH. --- Be positive!

Hi Teresa, You are missing something, it’s right there where you said, Settings, Display and Brightness. Top left is the back button, Swipe right once and you are on the heading “Display and Brightness”. Swipe right again and you are on the heading “Brightnejss”. Swipe right once more and you are on the Screen brightness slider and another swipe right takes you to “Auto brightness” which will be announced as either on or off.

Re: Screen brightness setting not sticking? Has anyone else seen this?
Ok, one swipe right from the brightness slider takes me to Text Size. Very odd. I'm not going to reset and fix what ain't broke, but that is very strange. Maybe on a reboot it'll fix itself.

Well, after a reboot, it still doesn't show for me. Maybe something weird happened when I did a couple of complete resets.

RE: Screen brightness setting not sticking? Has anyone else seen this?
That is definitely strange. Is Auto brightness also not there if you move your finger down the screen from the brightness slider? I wonder if the swipe somehow skips across it and I also wonder if you have a chance to ask a sighted person to check what they see visually. What iPhone do you have?
