After you set up a Sleep Focus, you can quickly turn it on or off in Control Center. A Sleep Focus helps reduce distractions before and during bedtime. For example, it can filter out notifications and phone calls, and it can signal to others that you’re not available.
You can allow interruptions from people important to you, and customize the Lock Screen and Home Screen. It switches back on or off at your next scheduled bedtime or wake up time, and you can share its settings with your other devices.
Set up a Sleep Focus
- Open the Settings app on your iPad.
- Tap Focus and tap Sleep.
-
Customize your Focus.
For example, you can allow interruptions from people important to you, customize the Lock Screen and Home Screen, and customize how apps and your devices behave when a Sleep Focus is on.
Quickly turn your Sleep Focus on or off
