Detect if screen brightness adjustment is set to automatic

Question

I would like to get something like a Boolean to tell if the user set the Auto-Brightness feature of the iPhone on/off. Is this even possible?

I thought it would be explained somewhere here - in UIScreen - currentMode but it seems that it isn't.

Answer 1

i don't think its possible.

Apple's official public APIs do not allow an iOS app to access General settings in the Settings app. So it is not possible to change/ detect the toggle button inside the settings app.

and ofcourse we can set brightness for our app like below.

[[UIScreen mainScreen] setBrightness:X] ( X is a float value between 0.0 - 1.0)
