Apple Says This Popular MacBook Privacy Accessory Might Destroy Your Screen

AI-summarised brief · reviewed before publication

Apple warns that using a camera cover on a MacBook and closing the lid may damage the screen due to tight clearance between the display and keyboard. This can also disable important display features like ambient light sensors and True Tone. Users are advised to remove the cover before closing the lid to avoid damage and maintain display functionality. This affects MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, and potentially other models with similar designs.
