LEVEL-UP Your iPad & iPhone Productivity With FOCUS!

- Опубликовано: 3 июл 2024
- With iOS 15 and iPadOS 15 Focus is here to help us concentrate and "be more in the moment" - that's part of the story - the other part is that your iPhone and iPad can transform throughout the day with custom home screens making your devices feel dynamic with completely new experiences. In this video I'll explain the new Focus modes feature and show you how to get it all setup (including showing you my own Focus modes and how I've got my devices setup, and why!).

man are you a christian(saw the 'bible for kids' app on your mobile) never could have guessed bruh!
Hey man you use Logos Bible Software?
Mine has custom pages turned off permanently
I wish focus mode can turn off apps. It feels kinda useless since you can’t limit apps. The app library still shows
Agreed! I shared the same concern
Yes That is what i was looking for
Exactly
Can you attach focus mode on a screen time restriction?
You can set time limit on apps, using screen time.
Okay, this has actually encouraged me to look into leveraging the different Focus modes. Like changing the home screens based on time of day. Nice!
Thank you for this great video! I honestly had not paid much attention to Focus mode but I am definitely going to be setting this up. I can’t wait until it rolls out on the Mac!
Nokia came up with the switching PROFILES feature during the keypad era and no company really followed thru until Apple revamped it as the more sophisticated FOCUS. I actually love this feature because there are anxiety-filled days when I simply want to avoid Social Media totally but still have access to my online games...and there are days when I do want to engage in Social Media.
omg so truee i remember turning my nokia profile to class at school or vibrate when hanging out with friends and with customized wallpapers depending on the profiles too! I mean this is an old feature from phones in 2000s but apple is just good at branding and marketing it as if it was never done before
Great video! My son was actually telling me how he liked the Focus feature on the new update. I just wasn’t sure if it was an app or setting as we weren’t able to get that far in the conversation. This video was helpful not only for the feature but for also thinking more about how to customize my pages on my phone. I have 2 basic pages with folders for those I have multiple types of apps for a theme. I’ve just been wanting something fresher looking lately. Thanks again for the info!
I like to tell my mom about this stuff and she doesn’t understand but I still like it
My favorite part of focus is my watch recognizing I am working out and setting that focus to my iPhone and iPad. No more notifications on my iPad when working out! And love my new night home screen before bed.
Thanks for the information. I will set up Focus this weekend. I need it!
Great video! Super helpful and I’ve found Focus mode very beneficial!
I rarely comment on RUclips, but felt I needed to send you a quick thank you for the explanation on using focus. I had a good idea on how to implement it however seeing your video made me plan it out first and then execute. Well done! 🙏
Awesome!
this is so awesome of you to explain on how to do these focus modes! i was confused on how you can have certain focus modes to only see certain apps. thank you so much, much appreciated!
I absolutely fell in love with this feature when I found it and once it was all set up it was beautiful to see the wallpaper change the minute I got to college and all the notifications to be silenced a sectioned off. What a feature Apple!
Thanks Chris. Very informative. I will try focus mode
Really helpful, thanks.
I made a preaching focus mode that turns off all notifications and calls on all my devices, sets a custom Home Screen with the apps I need for preaching from my iPad, plus has a shortcut to open the Logos app and a service timer app in split view. It all triggers 15 minutes before our service begins and turns off about 30 minutes after our service usually ends.
Thanks for the video sir! You answered my question from the Instagram poll so I feel heard. 👍🏼 great channel!
Thank you for this video I really appreciate the Content that you deliver. This was very good information for me. I’m setting mine up now!
Loved this video!!!!
You’ve inspired me to give this a try. I was thinking it was a frivolous feature. I believe I was wrong.
Excellent - thank you!
Super useful stuff!
Thx! Did not know about this.
Your channel is just so helpful
Glad you think so!
great input, thanks a lot.
this is the most genius update yet so far!
Awesome video here. Inspired me to do focus and scheduled summary :)
this is a very good video but the task just seems daunting. like opening a can of worms with another can of worms inside the original can.
Always love you videos Bro. Talented YOU ARE ❤️👊⚡️
Hey thanks!
Great video!
Amazing tips!!! Inspirational! I'll be marking votes first before setting up focus. Thank you!
I love the contents here ( they are pretty different)
Great video. Very insightful! I like the idea of focus modes, but I don’t need it to stop all my call and text notifications for every focus mode. I guess I wish there were profiles more than focuses.
You can allow the messenger/calls apps themselves on the focus modes where you want everything coming through instead of individually selecting contacts
Thanks for help with focus. I knew that they were out but hadn’t use them correctly.🇺🇸🇺🇸🐻
Love that Logos App I see there.
I see that Logos! Great software!
I have a focus for each school lesson. Just genius
I found using a career/work focus alongside a personal focus to be really helpful!
Great video… 👍
Apple could’ve gone about this so much better and I want to quickly put my 2 cents in and how I think they could’ve made it better is by allowing for you to control the apps and widgets you from from within the settings app instead of having to do it from outside and via the Home Screen which usually takes quite abit longer.
This is a mind blowing video lol. Apparently I really haven’t been paying attention cause I didn’t realize Focus could do all of that. Whoa
Lol I ended up just using different iPads for different purposes. Thus limiting interruptions. Working for me so far.
One thing I wish, for Focus mode, is the ability to create different app accounts for each mode. So each of your personal and professional social media profiles can be completely separate, yet they're using the same app... like with Firefox containers!
Hey Chris, I have been trying to figure out if there is a way to program the activation of certain focus modes based on events in calendar. I thought maybe you would know considering you are the best apple youtuber.
focus on spending half an hour to setup FOCUS MODES that will save you many hours in the long run. it is truly worth it
Can I allow notifications on everything for a particular focus ? Thanks
I would love to be able to switch between rooms and or activate certain Siri Shortcuts when the focus mode turns on. Like I work across the street from my home and I have a different wifi connection. I would like for when I switch between personal and work focus to switch wifi settings.
Dude, there are multiple times you suggest a software idea and then in a few updates later from Apple, it’s available… so you either are a genius or hacked Apple and can see their Kanban board lol
My bro, usually much better quality!
Is there a way to adjust a wallpaper to a specific focus on iPad?
The “limit contacts” is a major gate for me. Is there a way to have a focus that doesn’t block contacts?
So I love focus mode, but I keep resetting the Home Screen selections. Any word on them fixing that bug. It’s about 80% of the time it doesn’t switch the home screens like it should
For me, Focus modes are a way to organize my home screens. That's it. For example, there's no reason to ever see a home screen full of transit and lodging apps for SE Asia if I'm not in SE Asia. Given my use case, it frustrates me that there isn't an "allow all contacts" option when setting up these modes because they are never about having my phone impose self-discipline on me. I don't need to limit contacts or notifications. I just need to organize the interface for my needs at the moment. Apple needs to broaden it's imagination of how this feature can be used. It also frustrates me that I'm limited to 12 home screens. I need more. And I need to be able to customize the order in each Focus mode. Hopefully, this will come at some point.
Is there a way to reorder the home screens that are visible? On sleep mode it looks like iOS was able to automatically shows the customized Home Screen as my first page before it shows my default Home Screen. Also I love your videos. Please keep ‘me coming
All i need is do not disturb that’s all i need on mine
Thanks for this, i just dont know how to create a shortcut where I will be taken to my MAIN homepage/screen. Help, please!
I have create my own focus mode called “ipads off” so everytime i put it on my iphone ,mi ipad a and ipad mini turns off the wifi ,the bluetooth , etc , i use it when im going out and want to save battery ^^D
Hey Chris. Please can you tell me how to stop WhatsApp calls using focus modes or how to do it generally while I'm using my phone to record for example?
Hey - My slack notifications keeps going off even during focus (work) mode. It's not in my allowed apps list either. Any ideas on how I can fix this?
How do you add apps to your focus? Because it only lets me do 3
What happens if you have a focus mode with a few things on multiple screens ?
Hey! Where could I find both of these wallpapers??
What level??
It just takes more effort compared to doing it in Android. In android there are separate apps for work mode so you can definitely not get bothered with work notifications if you are using the same app for personal use.
at 10:10 you said you can have apps on more then one(twitter) screen but I didn't see this feature or you show how to do this. I can't seem to find a way to do this and its the main reason I do not use focus at all. Yes you can have the app icon on one page and a widget on another but I haven't found a way to have 3 icons for 3 focus's on 3 pages or even two pages. Most apps still don't have widget support so this makes it impossible to
He replied in a different comment about this. You just need to go to the App Library and long press and drag to the new Home Screen you’ve made. It duplicates the app. The sleep mode does this automatically and I was wondering how the heck it did that but I couldn’t haha
Hey 👋🏼 Quick question for ya! I use my iPad for writing tons of notes (in GoodNotes)… would you “still” recommend the Smart Keyboard? Not sure if it’s bulky when folded over. Thanks
It’s my favorite typing experience on iPad period
@@Dailytekk- late to the party… That "Perpetuum Mobile" in your background might become really irritating for the viewer during watching (at least it was for me). TWIMC
Hey - great video but 1 thing I am not sure of :
You mentioned that you can have an App on two screens (you used Twitter as an example) but when I tried to to do this it did not work. How do you do this?
Make sure you’re upgraded to the latest OS. Then drag out of App Library
@@Dailytekk hey - thanks for the great tip -it worked.
Thanks again.
If I just want to change the Home Screen, but allow ALL people and apps to notify me… is there a way to do that? I only see adding them one at a time and that is not worth it 😐
Simply question how to set focus to switching to specific screen I've did set up for focus. Let say I have a focus GYM, I don't wanna see on the screen any apps except I've setup for GYM focus mode. I don't know how to do that. Still I see everything like without focus mode on expect notifications only from apps I gave permission to. But I don't wanna see them on the screen. I don't wanna see any apps on the screen I didn't add to focus GYM mode. Hopefully you know what I mean 🙄 focus should make unnecessary apps invisible or something.
I wish focus modes would be integrated into the Apple TV also.
I wish Apple had proper parental controls.
Would be so good if you could set a focus called kids that blocks every app exept the ones you choose, I want to let my kids watch RUclips kids but not the regular one for example or Disney+ and I dont want them to be able to open my social media or any apps actually exept for the games that I let them play or watch what I let them watch. If focus would let me choose exactly what I want to see and use I could be a lot more comfortable with letting my kids use my devises
Hey dude
Whats behind you is running please let me know the name....of that...and yes my ipad 9 gen have arrived....i am so happy....9 gen is awesome in this price range.....
Well, there’s help me block callers that are not in my contacts?
One should be able to change wallpapers for individual Home Screen pages to better differentiate the modes.
It’s possible with Shortcuts
now with ios 16 it's possible
@@ummtulip yeah, it’s really amazing. 🥳
I don’t got focus it shows “do not disturb” for me
Hi Chris, I’m very interested in this video because although I’m retired, I have certain apps that I use each morning. A few language apps to try and learn a new language. I also have some games that I play with family members, such as words with friends and boggle. I set up a custom focus as you described, I named it, I close the apps I want to show in it although, boggle would not show even when I searched for it. I went through each screen as you said, but I don’t get a done screen. I’m using an iPad Pro with 16.4.1 update. I went through the steps many times and still nothing. What am I doing wrong?
That’s supposed to be chose the apps.
What’s With the camera?
You prob caught it before it was 4K
I love your Apple app videos like this! You do a better job at selling me on Apple apps then Apple does😂 Keep up the great work👍🏻
You a geek man 😂
I wish they would allow who you want to block too. So for personal. I just want to block work messages. But allow everyone else through.
Like For Visual 👍🏻
A fan of Christian hip-hop I see. *Subscribes
How’s here like me, came to certain setups for notifications mode, then he found himself stuck into this long intro 😢
but my is not say focus my is say do not Disturb
Hi dear,I cannot find App Library.Could you please guide me through.
Rip android 🪦
Would have been great to have a bit more focused approach towards this video. Way too much irrelevant information before actually getting to the useful stuff.
Why are you RUclipsrs make such a big deal about "Focus Mode" ... we mortals use "Silent Mode" father of all Focus Mode
Bro ur Videos r nice but u talk alot than showing Practically.
bro you sleeping only 6 hours!!!!! lol
6 hours is not bad everybody dont sleep 8 hours
Great videos, but too long and not quite specific. I just need to "browse" to your videos
Unbelievably useless
I’m so sick of my iPhone
Focus unsurprisingly like everything apple does is a joke. Says I’m asleep in the middle of the day. Deleted all my focus modes as I want not receiving notifications at all
Great video!
