iOS system devices are known for all the features they offer to their users that they can be comfortable with. And of course, this system always has updates with improvements to improve the development of the equipment in the hands of the user. For example, one of the features added at the launch of the iOS 10 system is one that was first seen on the Apple Watch.
This is the ‘Raise to Wake’ or in Spanish ‘Activate when you wake up’, a function that makes the use of the mobile or iPad faster and without problem. For that reason, in this development we are going to explain to you how this added option works and also how you can enable or disable it in such a case.
What happens when this feature is enabled on your iOS device?
By enabling the ‘Raise to Wake’ function on your iOS device there are some simple improvements, but they attract the attention of users. Next, we are going to explain what these are and how you can take advantage of them on your device from now on.
Activate the screen when picking up the mobile
In the first instance, when you want to use this function, you should know that with it the mobile screen will automatically activate when you pick up the device. Although the screen touch will also work; so, whether you pick it up or touch the screen with your finger, the mobile will turn on.
This is something that appeals to anyone, even those without an iOS device, although Android also has the option. But the point of this function is that when you go to turn on the mobile screen you don’t have to touch the power button.
Quick access to your favorite apps and tools
With the ‘Raise to Wake’ or ‘Activate when waking up’ you can have quick access to the functions of your iOS mobile. This is because you will easily see the notifications on the screen and you can access them by unlocking the mobile, or you can also enter the ‘Control Center’ of the phone.
How can you enable the ‘Wake on Wake’ feature on your iPhone or iPad?
The process or steps to enable the ‘Wake on Wake’ feature on your iOS 15 device is very simple. Also, as the system is always the same, the steps are the same whether on an iPhone or an iPad.
To do this you must go to the ‘Settings’ of the device in the icon of a nut, and there, touch the ‘Display and brightness’ tab. Then, you will find the option at the end of ‘Raise to Wake’ and next to it a switch, touching it will activate the function on your equipment.
What is the way you can configure this feature on your iOS device?
This is a feature that doesn’t require much configuration, although you could have it disabled if you don’t want to have it enabled all the time. Therefore, you could enter the ‘Settings’ to disable it, and then we will show you how you can do it.
How can you disable the ‘Wake on Wake’ feature on your iPhone or iPad?
To disable the ‘Wake on Wake’ feature, the steps are the same as the ones you followed the first time you enabled the feature on your computer. So, you have to go to ‘Settings’ to enter ‘Display and brightness’, when you are there look for the option ‘Activate on wake up’.
By touching the screen on the switch that is green you will be turning off the function and the switch will remain white or the system color. As you can see, this is not a complicated function to use, and many consider that it is better when it is enabled.
On the other hand, it is possible that the activation of this function catches your attention and you want to do it on your iPhone, however there are some details that would prevent it. As the first case that would prevent having this function is the fact that it is only available in models after the iPhone 6.
So if you have an older model or the iPhone 6 you will not be able to benefit from the function, since they are not compatible. Now, if your mobile is a model older than these, it is possible to have the function easily, you just have to look for it in ‘Settings’.
In case it does not appear, do not worry, since it is safe because you have not updated the system of your mobile. And since that is something that you can do yourself from the phone settings, you can do it as soon as possible.
The thing to keep in mind once you enable this flashy ‘Wake on Wake’ feature is that the battery drain will be a bit higher. Of course it is like that because when you activate it, the mobile puts the motion sensors to work, so it consumes more battery. Of course, the consumption will not be very great, since the effort that will be made on the battery is not so great either, and its life will not be so compromised.
