<br>The days of sharing intimate moments with your partner via a screen may be drawing to a close. <br><br>Apple's upcoming operating system, iOS 26, includes a controversial update to FaceTime, the company's video chat app. <br><br>When FaceTime detects nudity or even someone starting to undress, it will automatically turn off video and audio. <br><br>As part of the new feature, users will have the chance to restart video and audio with a tap of the screen. <br><br>But the interruption could prove a turn-off for people in long-distance relationships who rely on the software to get steamy. <br><br>And many commentators on social media were left unimpressed. <br><br>One Reddit user said: 'Long distance [https://www.shewrites.com/search?q=couples couples] in shambles, while another said: 'wtf. All my calls end in undressing.' <br><br>Another person joked: 'Well that's one way to end a work meeting early.' <br><br><br><br><br>With iOS 26, Apple is blocking FaceTime calls if it detects nudity or someone starting to undress (file photo)<br><br>Apple's update to its FaceTime software was first noticed by X user @iDeviceHelpus and reported by Apple fan site 9to5mac. <br><br>As screenshots reveal, when FaceTime detects someone undressing, it will show a warning message to them. <br><br>‘Audio and video are paused because you may be showing something sensitive,' the message reads. <br><br>It continues: ‘If you feel uncomfortable, you should end the call.'<br><br>It then gives users two options - ‘Resume Audio and Video' or ‘End Call'. <br><br>When Apple announced iOS 26 last month, it detailed the feature, [https://link.space/@TOTO20 toto20] called Communication Safety, in a blog post. <br><br>It said: 'Communication Safety expands to intervene when nudity is detected in FaceTime video calls, and to blur out nudity in Shared Albums in Photos.'<br><br>But it was widely interpreted as only a tool for child accounts that would help protect minors when talking to adults online. <br><br><br><br><br>As screenshots reveal, when FaceTime detects someone undressing, it will show a warning message to them<br><br>
