2018-02-13 Thread Mary Otten
Hi all, I’m not sure when this started, but it’s quite possible that was after the most recent iOS update. All of a sudden, my phone brightness is not staying at zero where I have it set. I really noticed this for the first time when my phone felt warm the other day and I couldn’t figure out

actual person recognition is via the back camera which is why screen brightness or screen curtain make absolutely no difference. I just tried it with screen curtain on and it works fine and the brightness level has no influence either. *From:*viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone

I think you need a sighted person there who can see what you are doing wrong. For that to work, though, you would need to temporarily turn off the screen curtain and turn up the brightness. HTH, Richard On Oct 1, 2017, at 10:58 AM, Deidre Muccio mailto:deidreandlou...@gmail.com>>
