Does True Tone Affect Battery?

Published in Technology 1 min read

True Tone, a feature found on Apple devices like iPhones and iPads, does not significantly impact battery life.

While True Tone constantly adjusts the screen's color temperature to match the ambient lighting, this process consumes a very small amount of power. It's not noticeable in everyday use.

However, if you're concerned about battery life, you can disable True Tone and see if it makes a difference.

To disable True Tone:

  • On iPhone: Go to Settings > Display & Brightness and turn off "True Tone."
  • On iPad: Go to Settings > Display & Brightness and turn off "True Tone."

Disabling True Tone may result in a slightly longer battery life, but the difference is likely to be minimal.
