iPhone users have been left mindblown by a hidden setting that everyone has agreed is the ‘most underrated’ feature ever.

Many Apple fans have taken to social media to share which feature on their device they think is the most underrated.

And while there have been plenty of incredible functions discussed, one particular feature stood out among the rest for being ‘life changing’.

On Reddit, one user posed the question, asking: “What’s the most underrated iPhone feature you actually use every day?

“We always hear about the ‘big’ features - Dynamic Island, Face ID, MagSafe, etc. But I’ve realised the things I rely on most are often the smaller, quieter ones. For me, it’s AirDrop - I use it daily and can’t imagine going back to cables or email transfers.

“Curious what it is for you all. What’s that one iPhone feature you think deserves way more credit than it gets?”

This prompted a reply from someone who said: “The anti-motion sickness dots!”

Many people took to the comment section to agree with this user, with another writing: “Yes! Somebody told me about these a few months ago and I use them all the time now.”

A third commented: “I learned about these from a similar thread a while back and they have been a game changer for my wife who gets motion sick after reading one sentence while I’m driving.”

And a fourth user added: “I was surprised at how well this works. It doesn't stop me from getting motion sickness but it allows me to look at my phone for 2 - 3 minutes instead of 20 - 30 seconds before my head starts spinning.”

So, how does the feature work? According to Apple, it can help to ‘reduce motion sickness’ if you feel discomfort when using your iPhone while traveling as a passenger.

In order to do this, you’ll need to turn on Vehicle Motion Cues which are ‘onscreen cues that may help reduce motion sickness’.

On the Apple website, it said: “Vehicle Motion Cues appear as animated dots on the edges of the screen that represent how the vehicle is moving without interfering with what you’re doing on iPhone.”

In order to switch the feature on, head to Settings, followed by Accessibility and then Motion.

Click on Vehicle Motion Cues and select on either automatic or manual - which will either enable the feature automatic when it senses motion or to manual show or hide the feature.
