Raise to Wake iPhone 14: How to Turn It On & Off (iOS 16)

Do you want to know how to enable and disable raise to wake on your iPhone 14 models? This post will guide you on Raise to Wake iPhone 14: How to Turn It On & Off (iOS 16).

Many smartphones have this feature. On Samsung Galaxy devices it’s called “Lift to wake” while on iPhones it’s “Raise to wake.” When enabled, when you pick up your phone, the screen turns on automatically.

When you pick up your iPhone to look at it, you can choose to let the screen come on. Raise to Wake allows you to quickly check your notification without pressing a single button, just as it does on the Apple Watch.

What Does Raise to Wake Mean?

When the Raise to Wake function first debuted on the Apple Watch, it made perfect sense – after all, you’re definitely lifting your wrist to check the time. The Raise to Wake function has been a part of iPhones since iOS 10 was released a few years back. Without touching the screen or pressing any buttons, it just brightens the screen so you can view your alerts.

I’ve so far really liked the raise to wake functionality on the iPhone. It makes it simple for me to view my alerts and choose between songs. But often picking up your phone might reduce battery life.
