Apple warns MacBook users from covering cameras while shutting down
By MYBRANDBOOK
In a support document recently published by Apple, the company has asked its users of Macbook Air and Macbook Pro to avoid covering their cameras while closing the laptop, to assure safety while using its range of Macbooks.
This comes after several users reported having cracked displays after they covered their cameras. It was especially so in the case of 16-inch Macbook users that have a thinner bezel in comparison to other models, as per news source.
Apple warned that, by practicing such methods, they could be damaging the display. This is because the clearance between its keyboard and display is designed to have tight tolerances.
"Covering the built-in camera might also interfere with the ambient light sensor and prevent features like automatic brightness and True Tone from working properly," the company said in a support document it recently published.
For users who are still concerned they need a camera cover, or may be required to do so, Apple has issued the following guidelines:
- The camera cover must not be more than 0.01mm in thickness
- Avoid using a camera cover that leaves behind any adhesive residue
-If you do end up having a cover that is thicker than 0.01mm, remember to take it off before you close your laptop.
