WHEN YOU WANT to adjust the brightness of your iPhone, you can only reduce it by a certain amount. For the most part, it’s fine but if you are looking at your phone in a dark place, any further reduction in lighting is always appreciated.
What you might not know is there’s a hidden ‘low light’ mode found deep in accessibility mode and it’s pretty easy to access, once you know how.
To start, go to General > Accessibility > Zoom and turn on Zoom and Show Controller.
A little controller with four arrows and a button will appear on screen. Tap on it to bring up an extra set of options. Tap on ‘Choose Filter’ and select ‘Low Light’.
Once you’ve that done, turn ‘Show Controller’ off and go back to the accessibility menu. If you scroll to the bottom, you can go to accessibility shortcut and turn on Zoom (if it isn’t on already).
Now when you triple press the home button and bring up accessibility shortcuts, hitting the zoom button will activate low light mode. Doing the same thing will revert it back to normal.
And that’s it. Bask in the glory of not having a screen that burns your eyes.

This is a huge story, there were 70 gas related incidents across two large residential areas of Boston, nearly 150,000 people were requested to evacuate their homes.
I don’t think this article is doing it justice.
So who over pressurised the gas line, the nearest Muslim or the Russian tourists??
@GClare: sometimes things just go wrong… I love that you guys don’t realise you’re the conspiracy theorists when you say that accusing the Russian “tourists” is a conspiracy.
@Paddington C.: wooosh
@Chris Linehan: I don’t think it’s a case of “whoosh” but I could be wrong.
@Paddington C.: double whoosh
Sorry to be a a grammar Nazi, but “too blame”? Sigh.
@chinaski: “Sorry to be a a grammar Nazi”???
Could it be the cost of deregulation?
You do have to giggle at the anti wind farm lobby using natural gas funded studies to pretend ficticious vibrations are melting their brain. Meanwhile in Boston….
I wouldn’t discount Chinese hackers doing a proof-of-concept test. This is exactly the type of chaos that can be caused in a cyber war.
Leeks made from gas…. no wonder there were explosions
@Mark Pom: The Welsh will be pleased with the reference to leeks!!
@GClare that could of been a gas leek and everyone tried to cook at the same time
Putin at it again!
have your say
