Night Owl - Screen Dimmer with Blue-Light Filter

[Ink]

Night Owl enable you to reduce the brightness of your device screen lower than you can achieve with the default settings in order to avoid eye strain or headache in a dark environment or at night. If you have an AMOLED display, you can also save battery!

Functions

• Screen Dimmer: Adjust the backlight brightness lower than default
• Automatic Start and Stop: Start and Stop the service at a specific time
• Blue-Light Filter: Reduce the blue light to protect your eyes. Blue radiations can cause insomnia
• Advanced Filter: Adjust Red, Green and Blue value of the filter

"Protect your eyes at night against the display of your phone"​

It would be great if it was available for Windows PC not just for a mobile device as i do not have one.

If your PC has ambient light sensor then auto brightness will take care of the brightness. Will Blue light be reduced if I use a darker background and a darker shade of accent color on WP?

I have noticed a great difference in sleeping/waking up. No longer are my eyes being burnt by the screen, reduced tiredness* and waking up earlier*.

I highly recommend this great app, it's variety of settings and start/end are +1.

* No changes made to my sleep pattern. Comparison to before Night Owl app.

Yeah, it's been pretty helpful for me.
I've noticed I've been going to sleep easier at nights (I usually sit up on my computer and phone at night) which obviously makes me wake up better and more productive in the morning.
Awesome app, I don't know how I went without it before.

I set it up so it dims automatically between certain times, I also messed around with the screen dimmer bar until it was perfect for me.

You can change the Screen Dimmer slider to set the backlight brightness.

Night Owl - Screen Dimmer - Android Apps on Google Play

My Notes:

Manual Timer is still fully functional in Free version under Schedule, while Sun Timer (Premium) is based on Location for Sunrise/Sunset. New GUI is more subtle and no-more side menu open upon app launch, the Ads don't appear to be intrusive either (just don't scroll down).

A site Admin here would NEVER put anything malicious here! Unless it's a malware sample in the Vault of Doom
On another note, trying out the flux thing - not sure if I like the colours - needs tweaking
