Powered by the TrueDepth camera, it detects where you're looking and translates that into taps, swipes, and scrolls. Ideal for users with limited mobility or anyone wanting a futuristic, touch-free experience, this tool is both powerful and surprisingly intuitive. Below is a clear, step-by-step guide to set it up and master it.

• Open Settings > General > Software Update.

• Install any available updates.
