The feature aims to eliminate eye strain when you are looking at your phone screen at night, in low light conditions. Night Shift eliminates the bright blue light that can keep you wakeful. It makes the color of the screen more orange to reduce eye strain, by making the screen less glaring.<\/p>\n[ad type=\u201dbanner\u201d]\n<p>The feature of Night Shift is \u2018all new\u2019 in version 9.3. But this feature has been there for years for our computers and was recently released in App Store for iOS under the name of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/justgetflux.com\/\">F.lux<\/a>. But the app was\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/recode.net\/2015\/11\/16\/apple-tells-screen-dimming-software-f-lux-to-shut-down-its-ios-version\/\">pulled down from the App Store<\/a>\u00a0for unknown reasons. Just with the goal that iOS can market that as a built-in function in their OS.<\/p>\n<p>The app is not new and has been there for years on the Android Play Store as well, in any case it required root to function. Still, there are options that an Android user can attempt to get a\u00a0similar Night Shift feature on Android.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"night-shift-blue-light-filter\"><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong>Night Shift: Blue Light Filter<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The first free app that you can try on Android to get Night Shift feature is\u00a0<strong>Night Shift: Blue Light Filter<\/strong>. The app is very easy to use and after you have installed it, you would simply need to release the app and activate the filter. The app has different settings for the day and night filter and you can tap on each of those to set the opacity level.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-21395\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wikitechy.com\/technology\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/1-349.png\" alt=\"How to Get iOS 9.3 Like Night Shift Feature on Android Without Root\" width=\"322\" height=\"571\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wikitechy.com\/technology\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/1-349.png 322w, https:\/\/www.wikitechy.com\/technology\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/1-349-169x300.png 169w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 322px) 100vw, 322px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-21396\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wikitechy.com\/technology\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/2-290.png\" alt=\"How to Get iOS 9.3 Like Night Shift Feature on Android Without Root\" width=\"322\" height=\"571\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wikitechy.com\/technology\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/2-290.png 322w, https:\/\/www.wikitechy.com\/technology\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/2-290-169x300.png 169w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 322px) 100vw, 322px\" \/><\/p>\n[ad type=\u201dbanner\u201d]\n<p>At day time, you would need to reduce the filter and even keep it to zero.
