grayscale - useful trick to notice, you should already stop using your phone.

true to be told gray screen is far less atractive than colorful one. I have configured my iphone, so with simple shrotcut I can turn on / turn off that feature.

Setup your screen for grayscale

  • Step 1: Set up Grayscale.
    Open your iPhone’s Settings > Accessibility
    Select Display & Text Size
    Scroll and select Color Filters
    Toggle Color Filter On and then check Grayscale
    
  • Step 2: Create the Grayscale shortcut, which lets you easily switch it on and off.
    Go to iOS Settings > Accessibility
    Scroll down to Accessibility Shortcut > select to check Color Filter
    Once configured, triple-click the side button to turn the Grayscale filter on and off.
