If staring at your phone in a moving vehicle makes you feel nauseous or dizzy, Apple’s new vehicle motion prompts may be a solution.
Vehicle Motion Alerts are released alongside a host of other new accessibility features that turn the built-in motion sensors in iPhone and iPad into anti-motion sickness aids.
Mix and match speed of light
Apple adds new sensory accessibility features, including eye tracking
Apple explains: “Research shows that motion sickness is often caused by a conflict between what people see and what they feel, which may prevent some users from comfortably using an iPhone or iPad in a moving vehicle.”

After turning on the new setting, the user’s phone began to display animated black dots at the edges of the screen. These points move with the movement of the phone or vehicle to reduce the above-mentioned sensory conflict. When the vehicle turns right or left or suddenly stops, these points will move on the screen “without disturbing the main content.”
