On the off chance that you are perusing this, you fall into the class of individuals who love to peruse articles before resigning for the day. Furthermore, why not? It is a pleasurable affair to peruse stuff, regardless of whether writing or junk, on those magnificent cell phone shows, without anyone else. Notwithstanding, the lively screens radiate blue light that can bring about strains and headaches. Indeed, this is the place blue light channel applications or night mode applications proved to be useful.<\/p>\n

While iOS incorporates a Night Shift highlight and numerous Android gadget makers dispatch their cell phones (counting Google\u2019s Pixel) with a blue light channel mode, there are numerous Android gadgets that don\u2019t pack such a component. All things considered, don\u2019t stress, here is our rundown of the 6 greatest night mode applications for Android:<\/p>\n

1. Twilight<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

One of the popular apps right now, Twilight is a pretty great app. Featured in our\u00a0must-have apps list\u00a0at the number one spot, it\u2019s brilliant at filtering out the flux of the blue light. The app\u00a0adapts your device\u2019s display<\/strong>\u00a0to the time of the day by mounting a slightly red filter over the whole display to protect your eyes. It also\u00a0allows you to manually\u00a0set the color temperature, intensity of the filter and screen dim on the display<\/strong>.\u00a0There\u2019s also an option to create profiles,\u00a0so that you can set custom filters for a particular time, for instance, bedtime reading or while commuting back from office.<\/p>\n

\"6<\/p>\n[ad type=\u201dbanner\u201d]\n

The free version only lets you create a couple of profiles. If you want more profiles along with the ability to adjust transition time for sunset and sunrise, you can pamper yourself with the Pro version of the app.<\/p>\n

Install:\u00a0(Free<\/a>,\u00a0Pro $2.99<\/a><\/span>)<\/strong><\/p>\n

2. Darker (Screen Filter)<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

Darker reduces the strain on your eyes by reducing your screen\u2019s brightness to extremely low levels and enabling color filters. That doesn\u2019t sound extraordinary until you are greeted by the options. This app lets you\u00a0put a flux filter of any\u00a0<\/strong>color<\/strong>\u00a0on the screen. You can\u00a0dim the capacitive button lights on your phone (provided your phone has it) and set the brightness levels of the status bar separately. It also has support for\u00a0Tasker, so you can let your phone switch display-profiles automatically. However, some of the mentioned features are only available in the Pro version. Still, this makes for a very compelling app if you want your eyes to stay safe.<\/p>\n

Install:\u00a0(Free<\/a>,\u00a0Pro $1.99<\/a><\/span>)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em>3. Blue Light Filter \u2013 Night Mode<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

A very similar app to the previous one, this one will find\u00a0favor with the non-geeky community. This app offers\u00a0various\u00a0color temperature profiles<\/strong>, neatly stacked in the opening page. You can also set the intensity and the brightness levels by adjusting the sliders to your desire. Apart from the timer option for auto switching of the color profiles, you also get an option to\u00a0pause the effect of the app for 60 seconds,<\/strong>\u00a0in case you are installing an app or doing something important. Overall, it is a lightweight app that does the job very well.<\/p>\n

Install:\u00a0(Free<\/span> with in-app purchases<\/a>)<\/strong><\/p>\n

4.\u00a0Dimly \u2013 Screen Dimmer<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

Dimly is even simpler than the previous app on the list. Firstly, it is a very light app, which won\u2019t affect your phone\u2019s performance. You get a minimalistic UI with all the necessary controls up front. The in-app interface is basic, with settings options for the brightness dimming function. However, you get a very beneficial function-\u00a0shake to restore brightness<\/strong>. Just shake your phone and filter effect will be gone without opening the app. There\u2019s a premium version that also makes it ad-free & enables the auto start timer. Try this one if you believe in simplicity yet effectiveness.<\/p>\n

For those who love Android to the \u201cRoot\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

After going through these four apps, you might be thinking \u2013\u00a0what if I have rooted my phone?<\/strong>\u00a0Isn\u2019t there any suggestion for me try out? Don\u2019t worry, we have the following apps for you.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0f.lux (preview, root-only)<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

Flux has been there on PC and Mac for quite some time now and it\u2019s also available for Android. Similar to the computer version, the Android version of the app provides a lot of tweaking options, thanks to the root access. You have certain\u00a0lighting profiles like Ember, Candle, Incandescent etc., which can be automated<\/strong>. And the best part, it can do that based on your location, so you won\u2019t have to enable it on your own. There are some drawbacks, though, one being its limited support to Android 5.0+ and second, being limited to devices from certain manufacturers. Look out for it on the Play Store & try it out.<\/p>\n

\"6<\/p>\n[ad type=\u201dbanner\u201d]\n

Install:\u00a0(Free<\/a><\/span>)<\/strong><\/p>\n

6.\u00a0CF.lumen<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

CF.Lumen is another of those light filter apps that will provide you some usual filters for your screen. But you will be amazed when you dig into its root-exclusive features. The filters that you see through this app are actually rendered by the phone. The app uses the\u00a0light sensor to automatically calibrate the display<\/strong>\u00a0as per the lighting conditions. Hell, it even reads your morning alarms, so that you see your display in a way you are meant to, even when it\u2019s dark outside. You also get options for color blindness enhancements with settings for protanopia\/anomaly, deuteranopia\/anomaly and tritanopia\/anomaly, which in theory enhance clarity and color detail.<\/p>\n

\"6<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a Pro version that starts up the app upon boot and adds some more features like Tasker integration. However, the free version should be good enough for most people.<\/p>\n[ad type=\u201dbanner\u201d]\n

Install:\u00a0(Free\u00a0<\/a>with in-app purchase\u00a0for Pro<\/span>)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Protect your eyes with blue light filter aka night mode apps<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

There are some other night mode apps too, with similar features, but they are not\u00a0as good as the one\u2019s we have mentioned above. We know that most of you cannot spend a day without reading, so read on to your heart\u2019s content but be sure to use these apps to keep your eyes\u00a0healthy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
