Infrared Lights Always Flashing + Face ID

Wow. I just wanted to not be flashed by infrared light all the time. I get attacked by you. No one else cares about this? No one else notices it? Clearly I am the only one who can see and has issue with the radar-like IR light.

Now Apple is taking down my posts claiming them to be inappropriate?

I am obviously asking the wrong questions to the wrong people. Your hostility is alarming.

Have a nice day.

Considering there are 0-2 people watching most threads and this one has over 100 I'd say at least someone else

notices something.

Why you are trying to make me out at crazy for being able to see/notice this light is beyond me. Why no one is asking why you can't turn off the flood illuminator baffles me, too. I don't want it on, it bothers me. I see it. You want your faces scanned by IR light constantly tracking you every time you use your phone?

I am not here to argue my point, i was trying to find out more information. This does not seem like the place to do it.

Have a nice day.

YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO YELL.

You didn't have to challenge the fact that I can see the light.

Just because most people can't see it does not necessarily mean everyone wants it on all the time. No one can tell me why I can't turn it off. Nor can anyone explain the IR/UV light flashing behind all screens. Strange.

This entire conversation has given me the chills: Apple denied the light/camera existed, you say it's impossible to turn off.

No one can/will tell me why I can't turn the IR light off, which is odd. Time to make the trek to Apple, I guess?

Thank you for your help; it's been informative on many different levels.

As well as interesting.

Why are all of my devices flashing infrared? Why is my iphone flashing infrared when it is off? It is not only my phone. It is not a hardware problem. I can see the light on the new phones under dim light, not just mine.

Why? and why can I not turn it off? Why will no one tell me what that beam is in the photo in the first place? Why all my devices flash infrared?

Thanks for the suggestion, but I'd have to take every device in. They're all dysfunctional? Why is infrared flashing out of all of my ipads and iphones? Why won't the infrared beam on my new phone turn off with FaceID off?

What is going on?

You're not bothered by that photo? That seems normal, to be constantly scanned by infrared?

I am insulted you think I haven't tried that. And every other accessibility option. As well as called Apple and used web support. Senior advisors told me nothing should be coming from the phone without FaceID on. I don't even have it set up.

Why can't I turn it off?

Or these?

I can see it. Here is possibly why:

Odd that your response has changed and the rest of the discussion deleted.

A patent for an invisible screen? Weird screen scratches in completely normal use? Screen replacements not working if they are not done by Apple? Weird green dots in photos? Unexplained green stripes on screens? Flashing lights behind the screen? Turn any old front facing camera (video works) onto another device, move it a bit for an invisible light show.

Maybe the dots don't connect and it's just a bunch of careless programming, shoddy manufacturing and soft glass.

I did not say it, but I did not come to a community forum to ask until I hit an information roadblock. Do you think I would complain if I hadn’t exhausted all other, logical, solutions?

This is happening to everyone. I cannot use my phone for very long. There is invisible light all over these phones and ipads, flashing behind the screen. The flood illumination on the new phone is easily visible to me, I am by no means superhuman. Seeing that is what sent me down the rabbit hole trying to figure out what was up. Now I notice theIR lights on my other devices, too, but they are just beams of IR light.

The green dots were all over a section of a photo, not normal. Soft means it’s succeptible to scratches, bur less likely to crack, which is why you claimed on another thread why they were scratching. THIS IS NOT A SCREEN PROTECTOR ISSUE.

If you’re so into facts, can you reason why an IR camera is always flashing in your face, even if you turn FaceID off?
