The feature displays animated dots along the edges of the screen that respond to changes in the vehicle\u2019s movement, providing visual cues without significantly interfering with what you\u2019re viewing or doing.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"_figure_wioo3_1\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"_base_12j3k_1\" alt=\"Vehicle Motion Cues in action\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"auto\" width=\"1200\" height=\"-1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cassette.sphdigital.com.sg\/image\/hardwarezone\/71e95c97e01d20de5e2b2bf8c053cccdb8ac17f77babf18829fd81e5bfce7467?w=330&amp;q=85 330w,https:\/\/cassette.sphdigital.com.sg\/image\/hardwarezone\/71e95c97e01d20de5e2b2bf8c053cccdb8ac17f77babf18829fd81e5bfce7467?w=530&amp;q=85 530w,https:\/\/cassette.sphdigital.com.sg\/image\/hardwarezone\/71e95c97e01d20de5e2b2bf8c053cccdb8ac17f77babf18829fd81e5bfce7467?w=660&amp;q=85 660w,https:\/\/cassette.sphdigital.com.sg\/image\/hardwarezone\/71e95c97e01d20de5e2b2bf8c053cccdb8ac17f77babf18829fd81e5bfce7467 1200w\" src=\"https:\/\/cassette.sphdigital.com.sg\/image\/hardwarezone\/71e95c97e01d20de5e2b2bf8c053cccdb8ac17f77babf18829fd81e5bfce7467?w=660&amp;q=85\" style=\"--custom-aspect-ratio:-1200;contain-intrinsic-size:1200px -1px\"\/><figcaption class=\"_figureCaptions_wioo3_158\">\n<p class=\"_imageCaption_wioo3_165\">Vehicle Motion Cues in action.<\/p>\n<p>Photo: Apple<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"_base_1s8rd_1 _default_1s8rd_12\">For the uninitiated, motion sickness can occur when the body\u2019s sensory systems send conflicting signals to the brain. Take reading a book in a moving car, for example. Your eyes are focused on a stationary page and may not perceive movement, while your inner ear senses the acceleration, turns, and motion of the vehicle.<\/p>\n<p class=\"_base_1s8rd_1 _default_1s8rd_12\">This sensory mismatch can <b>confuse the brain and trigger symptoms associated with motion sickness<\/b>, such as dizziness, nausea and general discomfort. Vehicle Motion Cues aims to reduce that conflict by giving your eyes a visual representation of the vehicle\u2019s movement.<\/p>\n<div class=\"_embedContainer_wioo3_16\">\n<div class=\"_container_1stzb_1\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi_webp\/Ga22EthUCjA\/sddefault.webp\" type=\"image\/webp\"\/><source srcset=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/Ga22EthUCjA\/hqdefault.jpg\" type=\"image\/jpeg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"_facade_1stzb_5\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/Ga22EthUCjA\/hqdefault.jpg\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.7777777777777777\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/picture><button class=\"_playButton_1stzb_12\" type=\"button\"><span class=\"_playButtonText_1stzb_39\">Play<\/span><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"_base_1s8rd_1 _default_1s8rd_12\">The feature expanded to the Mac last year with the release of macOS 16, bringing the same concept to users who need to work or use their laptops while travelling. It can be accessed by heading to <b>Settings &gt; Accessibility &gt; Motion &gt; Vehicle Motion Cues<\/b>. Once enabled, you can also add Vehicle Motion Cues to Control Centre for quicker access.<\/p>\n<p class=\"_base_1s8rd_1 _default_1s8rd_12\">Apple also continued to improve Vehicle Motion Cues since its debut. With iOS 26, the company introduced additional customisation options, allowing users to adjust the colour, size, spacing and movement of the on-screen cues to suit their individual preferences.<\/p>\n<p class=\"_base_1s8rd_1 _default_1s8rd_12\">While Vehicle Motion Cues may not eliminate motion sickness for everyone, it is a useful feature worth trying if scrolling through social media, watching videos, or replying to messages in a moving vehicle usually leaves you feeling queasy. Personally, I found to be very helpful. And best of all, it\u2019s already built into your Apple device and takes only a few taps to enable.<\/p>\n<p class=\"_base_1s8rd_1 _default_1s8rd_12\">Source: Apple<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<center><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hardwarezone.com.sg\/guides\/how-to\/apple-vehicle-motion-cues-iphone-ipad-mac-reduce-motion-sickness\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article At Source <\/a><br \/>\n<center\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>iPhone, iPad, and Mac users, did you know your Apple device has a built-in feature designed to help reduce motion sickness while you\u2019re on the&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":68297,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[4428,26409,14072,7955,26408,6059],"class_list":["post-68296","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tech-gadgets-reviews","tag-apples","tag-cues","tag-motion","tag-reduce","tag-sickness","tag-vehicle","wpcat-32-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68296","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=68296"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68296\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/68297"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=68296"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=68296"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=68296"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
