iPhone smartphones have a feature that can significantly improve the comfort of users with sensitive eyes - Grayscale mode. Reducing the brightness and contrast of the display helps to avoid fatigue when using the phone at night.

Also, this mode can be useful for those who want to reduce screen time or struggle with app addiction, Tom's Guide writes. It is noted that switching to grayscale makes the screen less saturated, which helps reduce eye fatigue.

Bright icons and notifications become less attractive, which can help users better control the time spent in apps. For people with visual impairments, including colorblind people, this filter makes it easier to distinguish between text and images.
