Android 15 may be able to make your phone’s screen go even dimmer than usual.

If I were them I'd call the feature Dimmerer.

I used an app called Twilight for years to dim the screen further than allowed and add the red tint at night. Worked a treat.

Oh good! I was really hoping big tech could find ways to make it easier for me to give in to my crippling phone addiction

Wtf is that headline? Modern journalism is a meme

[-] ionize@lemmy.ml 8 points 5 months ago

I'm on Android 13 and already have this feature?

[-] Ilandar@aussie.zone 7 points 5 months ago

Read the article before commenting. It's not the same feature..

[-] Thorny_Insight@lemm.ee 3 points 5 months ago

It's effectively the same thing. This just does it automatically instead of the user having to toggle the feature on and off.

[-] Ilandar@aussie.zone 4 points 5 months ago

If it's different then it's not the same. Certainly nowhere near enough to claim that it already exists on a device running Android 13 or 14 (it doesn't).

Mines doesn't go dim enough. It's still glowing, compared to a blue light eye app I used.

Yeah, I'm on GrapheneOS with Android 14 and I have it too.

Wouldn't it be better for our digital wellbeing to have an option that makes it unpleasant to use the phone in bed? 😬
