iOS devices have long had the ability to track your sleep patterns and more with the Health app. But isn’t it annoying to be interrupted by notifications while you’re sleeping?

These notifications can be irrelevant and disrupt your sleep patterns. While DND mode is a great way to avoid distractions while you sleep, it can also cause you to miss important calls and messages that you receive during the night. Luckily, that’s where Sleep Mode comes in. Let’s learn more about it and how you can use it on your iPhone.

Sleep Mode is a special Focus mode in iOS that automatically activates based on your sleep schedule in the Health app. It helps you set alarms, which can then help you wake up on time.

You can also choose a time to relax, during which your lock screen will dim to minimize distractions. You can also choose shortcuts for apps that will appear on your lock screen during the relax period. This way, you can add relaxing apps and other tools to your lock screen to minimize distractions for a restful night.
