Have you replaced your screen? Replacing it disables true tone.

Not sure if this is the case though as it is stuck ON in your case.

Damnit, that is exactly it. Fuck my life.

Mine disappeared one day and my screen was original. Turned out my ambient light sensor was faulty. Apple replaced my screen and sensor.

(Pocket-lint) - Apple has a technology called True Tone, which is present within the displays of some of its devices.

The technology first made its appearance on the iPad Pro in 2016, but it has subsequently been added to devices including iPhones from the iPhone 8 onwards, as well as Apple's laptops launched after mid-2018.

What is Apple's True Tone technology, what does True Tone do and how does it make displays better? Here's everything you need to know about True Tone.

How does True Tone work?

Devices with True Tone technology feature sensors that measure the ambient light colour and brightness. The device then uses this information to automatically adjust its display, so it can correct white point and illumination based on your environmental lighting in order to render the right kinds of white under any conditions. This technology isn't new as some desktop monitors have been offering it for a long time.

The thing to remember is that the human optical system is constantly comparing near-white to perfectly white and that a "better" white can affect our perceived contrast of whatever we're looking at, meaning an adjusted white point should be more comfortable on our eyes. It also means that devices with True Tone should be more readable in direct sunlight, thus improving their usability ever so subtly.

There's another important element here for creatives though, and that's ensuring that the colours displayed remain consistent and accurate. In terms of the MacBooks with True Tone, the technology makes for a natural viewing experience that's not skewed by ambient light.

Here's how Apple explained its True Tone display when it was first launched: "The 9.7-inch iPad Pro features advanced display technologies, including a True Tone display, which uses new four-channel sensors to dynamically adjust the white balance of the display to match the light around you for a more natural and accurate, paper-white viewing experience."
