iphones ship an accessibility toggle to disable PWM.
- backscratches 7mo agoSo do pixel 10 series with Graphene (though it is only a small improvement). All other pixels are even worse with zero mitigations.
- unselect5917 7mo agowhat's it called? searching Settings for "pulse", "width", and "modulation" all produce no results.
- fragmede 7mo agoSettings → Accessibility → Display & Text Size → Reduce White Point Also Display Pulse Smoothing (PWM) if you're on Tahoe.

- unselect5917 7mo agoThank you!
- Klinky 7mo agoReduce White Point doesn't solve the problem, but helps reduce brightness while leaving the phone at a higher brightness to reduce the modulation depth. This also results in color and contrast changes. Apple is still one of the worst offenders for flicker sensitive people.
- throwaway290 7mo agoI was not taking about the old reduce white point setting. I'm talking about the new setting that specifically disables PWM. It may require a new phone or new ios but it exists.
- throwaway290 7mo agoThe setting is called "display pulse smoothing" (the description says it WILL disable PWM) and is available in iOS 26, not sure about earlier versions.
