What is the Focus mode in iOS 15?
you’re free to select which people or apps to let through even when youre in Focus mode.
Time-sensitive notifications: Apple has created a new hierarchy of notifications, with time-sensitive notifications at the top.
If Apple decides something is really important, it will automatically let it through your filters.
All triggered contextually, and preconfigured for you.
initiate the configs app on your iPhone or iPad, and go to the Focus section.
Here, choose the Do Not Disturb option.
Youll see a new interface for customizing all aspects of the DND mode.
you’re able to do the same in the Apps section.
From there, you’ve got the option to also choose whether to allow time-sensitive notifications.
The Lock Screen section will let you automatically dim the lock screen while in Focus mode.
you might also choose to see silenced notifications on the Lock Screen if you want.
And lastly, we come to the Turn on Automatically section.
It seems Apple has integrated its Shortcuts Automation feature directly into Focus mode.
Swipe down from the top-right corner of the screen to open Control Center.
Choose a Focus mode to switch to it.
Youll now see the Focus icon in the status bar.
Theres also a new Focus indicator on the lock screen, right below the time.
Tap and hold this indicator to switch to a different Focus mode, or to exit Focus mode altogether.
Apple has designed an intuitive step-by-step wizard for creating a custom Focus, so the process shouldnt feel overwhelming.
Now your iPhone is… significantlylessdistracting, anyway.
