Smartphoneone is one of the most personal things of each of us and therefore no one is comfortable when someone unauthorized is looking at their phone's display. Some manufacturers of tempered glass and protective films are trying to solve this problem by producing special "Privacy" versions of their products, which are equipped with a layer that reduces the viewing angles of the screen from angles, however, this is not an ideal solution. The presentation of the image on the display is sometimes slightly impaired with these privacy glasses and films and therefore users do not resort to their use to a large extent. However, it seems that Apple now he has come up with another way to stop unwanted screen snooping once and for all.
In a newly published patent application, he describes Apple his new idea as user-adjustable viewing angles of the display. Although the patent as such is traditionally quite abstract, it can very simply be described as a kind of electronically controllable filter in the display of the device, which will allow the user to set the polarization of the screen and thus also how well it will or will not be seen from angles. Thanks to this, the user should be able to set, in case he wants to have full privacy, so that the content on the display is only visible when looking directly at it, while in case he wants to share it with others, he can set the filter so that the viewing angles of the display will correspond to the present, when they are also great from an angle. It is only a patent so far, but that's all Apple The fact that he is working on a similar technology shows that he is very aware of the whole issue and would like to solve it in the future. Whether it will be this way or not,onec in a completely different way, but only time will tell.

Nothing that today's sold foils/glasses for displays can't handle.
Can the film turn it off and on?
What do you mean when you ask so stupidly... I don't need to turn it off, the foil works absolutely perfectly, beautifully readable from straight and light angles, standing next to it won't read. No reason to turn it off.
So I do not know. The author clearly writes in the article that the foils can change the rendering of colors, the commentator writes about the fact that with such a foil it is an irreversible process and the angle cannot be increased again, and you write here that it is not necessary. That seems a bit out of line to me.
1. Foil reduces viewing angles, but does not eliminate them completely.
2. Not everyone wants to keep it that way forever. For example, I don't want someone snooping on my phone in the subway, but on the other hand, I want to be able to sit down at home with my daughter and go through photos or show someone something quickly somewhere.
3. Such a setting within the system would be variamore flexible, so you could set smaller or larger angles, which foil cannot do.
4. With the film, it is necessary to separately buy something that can have this effect, but what if I want a different film that cannot do this due to better resistance or other properties?
5. The foil is for one phone. If I have more devices, I have to buy a new, different film. Settings within the system are everywhere, always and for everyone, and it's up to you whether you use it or not.
6. I don't understand why anyone has the need to vilify a technology that they haven't even tried yet, doesn't even exist yet, it's optional, but we still have to automatically have something against it. For example, when I swear at a physical action button versus a mechanical volume rocker, it's something I have to use whether I like it or not, but this is a slightly different case. In addition, such technology has a number of other potential uses. On the one hand, someone here always complains that iPhones don't have this and can't do this, but then when someone wants to come up with some optional innovation, they immediately chatter away. A bit of a shame, isn't it? For me, this seems like a great option, precisely because it is an option and not a necessity.
