Find the control you need · Fictional example
For illustration only. Nothing here changes your app records.
Explore these examples. They do not change your settings or play any effects.
- Sensory need
There is too much movement
Look for Motion in More. Still reduces movement while keeping the space usable. Your device’s Reduce Motion preference also applies.
- Sensory need
The space feels too bright
Look for Brightness in More. Quieted’s appearance controls affect the space; your device brightness remains a separate choice.
- Sensory need
I want quiet without losing the controls
Sound and haptics are optional. You can turn them off and keep using visible controls and supported accessibility actions.
Motion
Still removes travelling or continuous movement where possible. Low keeps slow local movement. Standard allows the full gentle treatment, still without flashing or camera shake.
Brightness and contrast
Scene brightness limits glow and scene intensity, not device brightness. With System appearance, Dim also keeps menus dark. An explicit Light or Dark choice under More → Preferences takes priority. Contrast changes separation and outlines.
Sound and haptics
Each can be Off, Soft, or Standard. They are independent, including with Still motion. Some spaces are silent: their Controls explain this, and Spaces → With sound shows those with audio. You can preview an available sound in Controls.
Cognitive load
Minimal reduces optional density or the amount you need to manage where a space supports it.
Open Controls from a space to see which settings affect it. Changes apply across Quieted. Show quick guide brings back its first action; the guide stays until you dismiss it or begin playing.
Choose a sensory preset
Use the normal sensory controls to choose a starting point that suits you.
Presets change several sensory preferences together. Read the choices and select one only if it suits you. You can keep your current settings and close this guide at any time.
Choose and save
Choose a preset below. It saves immediately; you can fine-tune afterwards.
The guide ends after your selected preset saves. Fine-tuning stays available afterwards. A preset is a starting point, not a promise of comfort.
