Apple "True Tone" (Automatically Adjust Brightness on Mac)
by Louis Dina 01 Jan '23

01 Jan '23

Happy New Year! I think I probably know some of the responses I will receive to this question, but I'll probably learn something new by asking, so here goes. What do you think of Apple's 'True Tone' for iPad and iPhone? (I'm not talking about Night Shift, which I don't use.) True Tone dims the brightness of the display as ambient room lighting gets darker. It also changes to a warmer white point in low light (which appears to be too warm to me). It does help preserve the appearance of contrast, brightness and saturation of an image so it doesn't blow out your eyeballs in dark environments. 'Automatically Adjust Brightness' does something similar on my Macbook Pro, but the shift in the white point doesn't seem quite as much (based purely on eyeballing it, not on measurements). I'm using a MB Pro 2017, 15" screen, with Monterey 12.6. My official editing computer (Mac Pro) is in a room with gray everything, constant moderately dim ambient light levels, calibrated monitor luminance and WP, and good balanced viewing lights, so I wouldn't consider any auto brightness controls for that computer or environment, especially for monitor-to-print matching. My MBP laptop and iPad, however, see constantly changing environments, which vary from bright to dark. Images look very different on screen based on different ambient lighting conditions if one does not adjust monitor brightness to compensate. If I edit an image on my studio computer, it looks very different on my iPad or MBP unless I manually adjust brightness of my retina display to match room lighting. Auto brightness helps in this case. Apple switches True Tone on by default on iPhones and iPads, so most users will keep that setting and what they view will shift with light environments. I'm not sure if 'Automatically Adjust Brightness' is turned on by default on current Macs and MBPs. I'd be interested in hearing comments on the pluses (if any) and the minuses of using these auto brightness controls. I hope 2023 is a great year for all my fellow 'color-geeks'. Lou
