iPhone Driving Focus

iPhone Xr, IOS 16.3.1


After manually activating "Focus Driving" BEFORE driving in vehicle, it automatically turns OFF when I stop driving.


Also, with "Focus Driving" ON, after being manually set, when I swipe up on lock screen sometimes it opens my phone and some times it asks if I still driving. Why does it act differently?


I patiently await replies.

Hi Submariner53,


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. We understand you have some questions about using the Drive Focus, and we're happy to help. When choosing "Manually" this is only when enabling Focus, your device will still detect motion and turn this off when you stop driving. This could also be why you're only occasionally prompted with "Are you still driving" as your device may detect that you are or are not in motion.

Thanks.
