Let’s get started!
What Is Inadvertently Mode in Infinix?
Inadvertently mode is a feature designed to prevent accidental touches or operations on your phone screen when it is close to an object or a surface. For example, when you are making a call and you put your phone near your ear, the screen will automatically turn off to avoid accidental hang-ups or dialing. Or when you are carrying your phone in your pocket or bag, the screen will lock to prevent unwanted apps from opening or settings from changing.
Inadvertent mode can be helpful in some situations, as it can save your battery life, protect your privacy, and prevent unwanted charges. However, it can also be annoying in some situations, as it can interrupt your usage, make your phone unresponsive, and cause missed calls or notifications.
What Is the Inadvertently Mode Function?
Inadvertently mode works by using the proximity sensor of your phone. The proximity sensor is a small device near the top of your phone screen. It can detect the presence of objects or surfaces that are close to the screen. When the proximity sensor senses something near the screen, it activates the inadvertently mode and turns off or locks it.
The proximity sensor can be triggered by objects or surfaces, such as your ear, cheek, hand, finger, pocket, bag, case, or cover. Depending on the sensor’s sensitivity and the object’s distance, the inadvertently mode can be activated more or less frequently.
Sometimes, the proximity sensor can also malfunction or get dirty, which can cause the inadvertently mode to activate randomly or constantly.
