The Focus Filters feature, found hidden inside the Focus and Do Not Disturb mode settings, allows users to remove distractions from apps when a focus mode is activated.
It lets users disable or hide certain areas of apps to reduce distractions. For example, you can hide certain calendars in Calendar app, certain mailboxes in Mail, filter conversations in Messages, access Safari Tab Groups, filter Calls by SIM, and more.
You can also customize system settings when a focus turns on. This includes automatically turning on or off Always On Display, Dark Mode, Low Power Mode, and Silent Mode.
