Abstract
This relates generally to systems and methods for changing tinting levels of one or more displays, and more particularly to changing tinting levels of one or more displays of an electronic device based on the satisfaction of one or more criteria. In some examples, an electronic device (e.g., an HMD) presents content in a first manner including a first tint. In some examples, in response to determining that one or more criteria are satisfied, the electronic device presents the content in a second manner and changes the tinting level from the first tinting level to the second tinting level. Changing the tinting level and the presentation of the content allows a user to seamlessly see and/or focus on different objects in the physical environment without having to manually change the tint of the display and/or without having to manually change the presentation of the content presented on the display.
