JonnyT same here. I am using xs . I was fine when it was ios16. But after upgraded to ios17, I started to feel eyestrain and headaches. I am sure it relates to IOS update. But when I tested my friend's iphone 14 pro with ios15, i still felt eyestrain and headaches. I am very frustrated too.

Has anyone realised after iOS update reduce white point doesn’t work the same. I used to have it on 95%, now it helps but not as much as at low light things aren’t legible. I’m trying to even not use it and try the low light filter through zoom- does anyone one if they work in the same way in terms of theories on dithering/pwm etc? For me if I don’t have any on and it’s bright ill get a headache in a matter of seconds and fizzy feeling!

JonnyT I don’t understand. Since the update, reduce white point has been making matters worse. I now seem to prefer reduce white point has point off and just low brightness instead whereas beforehand that would have made me sick and I needed to have reduce white point at 95%. Now when I do that it makes matters worse I’m finding. Can anyone shed any light on this?
