Alexander. Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 (edited) To find the Night Light settings in Windows 10 - Press the Start Button - Search for "Night" and then click on the result and you should see a page like the image I've included below. As a gamer, I constantly find myself gaming in the evenings/night as I have work and study commitments during the day. Studies have shown screens which emit blue light can drastically affect your sleep pattern so therefore I have chosen set the configuration to when the sun sets and rises. It's definitely helped me get to sleep quicker and wake up feeling more refreshed for a new day. Are you doing the same or do you choose to manually switch it on and of if so, why?

UleTheVee Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I never liked that freaking setting. It has always bothered my eyes and I found better results from just turning my TV's brightness down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Have you tried flux? That's way better than making the manual settings. I just install the flux and let it take care of the graphics. And on that note it just works out on most part. It's also easy with that software on the android as well. https://justgetflux.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyfire Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 In my case on phone, I am making use of the Android night light. It seems to be good for the timed settings for the night light. I set it for evening 6 to morning 10. This way I can control that light aspect on my phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, mine is set from 6 pm to 7 am in the morning so I am not exposed to the blue light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 On android recently checked the reading mode seems to be pretty effective for both playing games and reading as well. I also think that if there is enough battery, then this mode can pretty much easily kick in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bravosi Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Whats the purpose of this setting exactly? if your monitor gets darker then its harder to watch, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 This settings protects your eyes. Like say if you are exposed to the higher amount of the display light that can be bad for the eyes. And in such case it can be reasonable to use it on Android or the desktop on the Windows 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bravosi Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Oh, nice! I didn't know! The contrast of light is indeed annoying! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 In day time you need specific amount of light to see the screen in case of the night, you need different set of frequencies and the light from the device. So such apps control that part of the settings. That's why they are getting popular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also tends to cause insomnia for some reason - from my personal experience anyways. It is a very handy feature, I only wished I had known about it when I first got a Windows 10 PC. I didn't learn about this until about 2016 and that's when I started using it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Never noticed that it may cause insomnia. Maybe it's possible considering each light has different effect on us and how we manage to cope with it for our eyes. I think that's something we have to look with experimenting with that feature.

Actually, there are studies out basically proving that the regular blue light from monitors can disrupt our sleeping patterns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Yeah. I have that problem developed over the years. I have started to avoid the monitor light after specific time. I have seen the changes happening in that context. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
