With the arrival of the iPhone X , many of its features are new to users . One of them is the possibility of waking the phone with a single touch on the screen. In this way the review of notifications or taking a picture can be done quickly and easily..

This function called "Press to activate" can be very useful since having no start button, we can activate the screen easily. This prevents us from having to continually press the side button to turn on the iPhone X.

Despite these advantages, you may want to know how to deactivate the “Press to activate” function because you may accidentally activate the screen, which may have an impact on the phone's battery..

Note
This function is exclusive for iPhone X so it does not work on any other model at the moment.

Below are the steps you must follow to know how to disable "push to activate" on iPhone X.

The first thing you should do is open the phone settings and select "General."

Step 2

Within "General" we have to access the "Accessibility" section. Next we have to scroll down to deactivate the “Press to activate” tab.

Once we have completed these steps, the iPhone X will stop turning on when we press on its screen. Keep in mind that by disabling this function the speed to unlock the iPhone X will decrease..

Enable press to activate on iPhone X
In the event that we want to activate this function again, it is enough that we follow the same steps and reactivate the “Press to activate” tab. This way we will reactivate the phone with a touch on the screen.

This can be really valuable as we have said since when the home button disappears, activating the phone is somewhat more tedious. It is likely that over time this feature will be included in all new iPhone models.
