Port detection settings
When you enter the door detection setting menu We will be able to set different settings as follows:
1. Unit: Choose a unit that we, Thai users, are most familiar with the “meter” unit.
2. Distance by step: set the distance For example, if we select 2 meters, if we are within 2 meters of the door, the iPhone will emit a high or low tone. to remind us that we are very close to the door
3. Voice Prompt: Enable notification sounds, voice and vibration to make the function work at its maximum. If a person is visually impaired It is recommended to enable everything

Examples of pink and yellow
use
Time to use to detect the port Choose to use the discovery mode. Tap the tracking mode icon in the menu. then it can be used
When we lift the iPhone, the camera and the LiDAR in the iPhone work together. When a door is detected, it tells us the distance between us and the door, how many meters away from us the door is now. Ready to say what kind of door it is. Ready to say what kind of knob When we have to open the door, it will open in the correct posture.
If there are any messages or lettered signs on the door. The message on the door will be read aloud if the voice is enabled.
Experience after using the door detection function
Detecting the door and calculating our distance from the door can be a bit slow. As we walked towards the door, we quickly noticed that the last iPhone distance was a bit slow. So, if we walk slowly, there may not be a lot of problems.
This feature is very clever. because it can tell if the door is hinged or sliding The door handle can also be detected and identified as a knob.
It is considered a feature that should help those who cannot see more or less.
