To manually turn on Sleep Focus, access the Control Center and then tap the Focus option, followed by Sleep.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
-
Open Control Center: On most devices, you can access the Control Center by swiping down from the top-right corner of the screen (on iPhones with Face ID) or swiping up from the bottom of the screen (on iPhones with a Home button).
-
Tap Focus: Look for the "Focus" button in the Control Center. It typically displays the current Focus mode or simply "Focus".
-
Tap Sleep: A menu will appear with available Focus modes. Select "Sleep." This will manually activate Sleep Focus.
Your Sleep Focus will stay active until your next scheduled bedtime or wake-up time, unless you manually turn it off.
Important Considerations:
- Share Across Devices: To ensure your Sleep Focus settings are consistent across all your Apple devices, make sure "Share Across Devices" is enabled in Settings > Focus.
- Scheduled Activation: Remember that Sleep Focus is designed to turn on and off automatically based on your sleep schedule. Manually turning it on overrides this schedule temporarily.
