Night mode is an automatic setting which takes advantage of the new wide-angle camera that's in the iPhone 11 and 11 Pro models. It's equipped with a larger sensor that is able to let in more light, allowing for brighter photos when the light is low.

Apple Registers PrivacyIsImportant.com Domain Name
Apple has registered the domain name PrivacyIsImportant.com, according to a WHOIS record discovered by MacRumors. The records indicate that Apple took possession of the domain name on Monday.
The record's contact information now lists Apple Inc. as the organization, complete with its address, phone number, and domains-related email. The registrar is CSC, a firm that protects domain names for large corporations.
The domain name does not yet point to an active website, so it's unclear if or how Apple will use it, but it is certainly possible the company could be planning a privacy-focused marketing campaign along the lines of its "what happens on your iPhone, stays on your iPhone" billboard at CES 2019 in Las Vegas.
Apple has always been committed to privacy, which it believes is "a fundamental human right," but a marketing campaign could help reassure customers of that position after a major FaceTime privacy vulnerability surfaced in late January.

Facebook still in the App Store after the privacy and data breach scandals the last few months

It's not THAT important to Apple; privacy
Apple is just a master in marketing and P.R. (only with a double moral/standard)

More cynical comments here. What is the deal with MacRumors these days? Apple literally cannot do anything right. :rolleyes:

It's a great unique selling point, they are smart to capitalize on it. One of the reasons I have stayed on iOS and macOS is because of the high level of privacy, I trust Apple more than I trust Microsoft and Google when it comes to privacy as they have shown a continued commitment to providing us with good privacy controls and strong encryption.

Just to complain a little bit – you know the MacRumors's habit: let's hope MacIsImportant.com will follow.

When your products stop selling for themselves, you gotta marketing them up until it sticks.
Yes, marketing campaigns mean that a company is failing./s
