Often need to disable this app when it goes to night mode because buttons on random apps just stop working. Like many of the functions in the app store simply don't respond. For example after writing this review the Google store asked me if I wanted to write more reviews. Neither button worked (write more reviews or exit....I couldn't exit without turning off night shift!)
Reviews for Night Shift: Blue light filter
← Back to Night Shift: Blue light filterPro ver. was well worth the money. The schedule feature is quite priceless and you can't see it until you start using it. I'm not saying it changed my life etc but it's really REALLY useful - and I say it quite rarely. Great job guys!
I like the app as it keeps the blue light to a minimum - a feature I find particularly useful in the evenings, and in low light conditions in general. It makes falling asleep watching videos all too easy. Developers might wanna offer some extra functionality or move some of the free functions behind a pay wall as right now I have no reason to pay. I'm definitely not complaining, just mentioning this out of consideration for the devs of the app!
Wonderful, a must have app! After using my phone for one hour with the app turned on for Youtube videos, reading, etc., I can tell that my eyes are so relaxed now, compared with how they were before using NightShift.
This app is a life saver for me! I have intractable, chronic migraine. Tv's, computer screens, even phone screens are immediate migraine triggers, especially in a dimly lit room. I have this app on my phone and tablet and it's great! I especially like that you can schedule a settings change. A bit brighter for daytime and darker at night and none that harmful blue light that is a migrainer's kryptonite!
great app for night readers. I have an Android phone that gave then took away a blue light filter. Luckily, the creators of this app are good people and I have a good filter once again! Takes some customization, but worth the price! Good...Night. Don't let dark mode fool you.
My eyes are very sensitive so I like to have my screen as dim as possible so it's not just for blue filter. However when I scroll down the notification bar or get pop up notifications etc. the screen turns back to its normal brightness and blue light. This app is pointless! The blue light filter in the system software is better.
Nice, polished, easy app. My main reason for switching to Night Shift was that my old app didn't auto toggle the filter off when other apps gave permission prompts (which would give an error). Also very happy about the pause function.
Worth paying a few bucks for the Pro version to remove the ads. Simple app to control luminosity and tint, possibility to save presets and apply them at specific days/time. Good for the eyes and avoids getting blind when looking at your phone during the night! Great app, I recommend it :)
I really like it a lot. My doctor recommended a blue light filter for my phone and this one is the best in my opinion. I like the modes AND they are customizable. Also they are a good balance of pleasing colors and doesn't give you the feeling of a shadow.
Can't tap certain buttons when the filter is on such as sending an email on Gmail, saving a photo in Google photos or viewing albums on Spotify are all unresponsive, but pause the filter and they work fine. Sent an email to the developer and did not receive a response, and I PAID FOR THIS APP.
Honestly wouldn't be leaving a review with 5 stars if I didn't think think this app was amazing and certainly worth the pocket change they are asking. I use night shift every night and between my eyes not bleeding from the lack of in depth brightness controls my phone doesn't come with and waking my wife up from my phone being to bright while I stay up awhile longer reading stuff online it's the balls to say the least.
I have used this app every night for many months. I absolutely love it. However, recently, I can no longer click "sensetive information" like log-ins, installing or updating apps, etc. because it detects the overlay. According to the official help page, there is not a fix. You have to turn off the filter, click what you want, then turn the filter back on. This is incredibly inefficient and it is sad because this was such a great app.
Works well. Cancels out Blue light and can dim the screen more than the phone settings allow. Everything is adjustable including the times it comes on and off, the brightness, and the temperature of the colour. I've had no issues, and highly recommend this app.
Useful app and I use it every night. It is very helpful when I can't get to sleep. I would risk waking up the others with the glare from my un-dimmed screen I would pay 10 times over for the pro version. Thankfully, I only need pay a single time to receive the benefit of this app which allows me to use my phone without waking the creatures in my home who are frequently bothersome or dangerous in the night. Best blue light blocker ever has been godsend buy it and support the developers. Yes!
The filter choices are good but despite the schedule, it's off most of the time Then, it comes on when it pleases and you can't turn it off! I have uninstalled and restarted my phone and it's STILL ON AND I CAN'T TURN IT OFF!!!! I have restarted three times and powered down and back on. Initially, the light is natural but within 2 minutes this AWFUL APP comes on again!! I may reinstall and uninstall This is HORRIBLE!!! Well, even that DID NOT WORK!! Can anyone help???
I regret buying it. I was optimistic that the devs would fix the issue with the notification bar. The whole point of an app like this is so that you can check your phone in the middle of the night without exposing your eyes to blue light, which wakes you all the way up. But if the notification pull down isn't covered, it greatly defeats the purpose.
Simple and effective. You can adjust the level of blue, but I find I like the settings that are there. It makes a huge difference in your ability to relax and does not interfere with the quality of your reading experience. It has been compatible with the sites I use to get books (primarily books from Amazon's kindle unlimited. I use it on my Android S7 and my Galaxy tablet E. I bought the pro version for. 99. Best 99cents I ever spent.
A month ago, this would have been a 5 star review, but something has changed and when the filter is engaged, the rest of the phone is not able to be used (the touch filter or something has gone weird). Around the same time, I noticed that the app icon changed. There is a similarly named app with the old logo, but the upgrade I made to the pro version does not work there. I emailed the company and they responded with an email that indicated they had not even read mine. Hard pass on this one.
Best blue light filter app on android! I have tried a dozen other apps, and this one is by far the best! 100% worth buying, I will use this app every night, without ads, and it will turn itself on and off! update: I have been using this app 3 years now and still love it! I wish the dev would add a feature to automatically turn on at sunset and off at sunrise, rather then at a predetermined time! Thank you!
