The iPad includes an auto-brightness feature.This feature changes the iPad's display based on the surrounding ambient light. Sometimes this isn't enough to get the display just right. Here are some ways to adjust the brightness of your iPad's screen.
The iPad Control Center is a convenient way to adjust several settings regardless of which app you have open. Here's how to use it:
Open theControl Centerby sliding your finger down from the upper-right corner of the screen.
The brightness controls are one of the two vertical sliders,along with the volume control. Move the slider up and down to adjust the brightness.
Adjusting the brightness setting on your iPad is one way to save battery power. It allows you to use the tablet for longer periods of time before it needs a charge.
Press theHomebutton or tap anywhere on the screen to close Control Center.
You can also adjust the iPad's brightness through the Settings app. Here's how:
Open the Settings app.
TapDisplay & Brightnessfrom the column on the left.
Drag theBrightness slider left and right to adjust the brightness.
You may want to adjust the brightness to compensate for glare when using your iPad outside or to tone it down when reading at night.
Adjust other settings such asNight Shift, Text Size, andBold Text.
The Display & Brightness setting provides access to the Night Shift feature. While Night Shift is activated, the color spectrum of the iPad shifts to limit blue light to help you get a better night's sleep after using your iPad.
From theDisplay & Brightnesssettings, selectNight Shiftto customize the feature.
The Text Size option adjusts the size of the text when an app uses Dynamic Type. It makes the type larger or smaller to compensate for diminished vision. Turning on Bold Text causes most normal text to become bold, making it easier to read.
Not all apps use Dynamic Type.
If you have a recent iPad model, such as the 9.7-inch iPad Pro, you may see the option to turn True Tone on or off. True Tone is a new technology that mimics the behavior of natural light on objects by detecting ambient light and adjusting the iPad display to match it.
In real life, a piece of paper might range from very white under the artificial light of a bulb to a little yellow under the sun. True Tone tries to mimic this for the iPad display.
