auto mode
Hands-off device setting
Auto mode is a camera or device setting that automatically adjusts parameters like exposure, focus, and white balance without manual input.
The camera reads conditions and makes decisions for you: I left it on auto mode and the photos came out fine.
The term extends to any system that handles adjustments autonomously rather than requiring user configuration.
