You might be looking at these dots around the edge of my iPhone and wondering what they are. Well, they’re part of a clever feature called Vehicle Motion Cues. And if you suffer from motion sickness when using your iPhone in the car, or on the bus, or a train, this could really help.

The dots you see move with your device, and they act as a visual reference point, helping to reduce motion sickness as some people experience as a passenger.

To turn it on, head to the Settings app, find Accessibility, and then tap onto Motion. From here, look for Vehicle Motion Cues and simply turn it on to Automatic.

Now, whenever you’re travelling, your iPhone will enable it when it detects you’re in a moving vehicle.

You can even customise how these dots appear on screen by changing the colour and the size. And you can add a toggle to Control Centre for quick access whenever you want to manually turn it on and off.

I’ve not had much chance to test it myself, because I’m usually the one driving. But if you’re a passenger, I’d love to know if this helped. And if you enjoyed this QuickTip, please do subscribe and then check out this video.
