iPhone May Be Too Close, How to Get Rid of It Forever

Gorilla updated on Apr 01, 2024 to iOS Questions and Answers

What does "iPhone May Be Too Close" mean? I want to remove it forever. It's quite annoying. Is there an iOS bug or I can just get rid of it from Settings?

When your iPhone says the device is too close to your face, you should move it away from your body and keep it at arm's length from your face for eyesight protection and avoid myopia. You can also go to Settings > Screen Time > Screen Distance to turn off the eyesight protector setting. Note that this feature is only available on iOS 17. So if you upgrade to iOS 17 or later, it is recommended to enable this feature which makes you aware of how close you're holding your phone and protects your eyesight, especially for children or teenagers.

When you get a new iPhone 15 running iOS 17 or later, you may want to transfer data to your new iPhone or backup data from your old iPhone. In that case, EaseUS MobiMover is an expert in iOS data transfer or backup. You can download it for free on your computer or laptop, which provides both trial and free versions.

You can use it to do the following things:

  • transfer photos, videos, movies, contacts, notes, etc. from one iPhone to another.
  • move data from Android to iPhone
  • transfer and backup WhatsApp messages or images from your old iPhone.
  • backup files from iPhone to PC or Mac, and restore files to new iPhone accordingly.
