Brightness
$0.99About Brightness
Is your screen too bright at night? Do you want precise control over your screen brightness? Where other apps only allow you to vary the brightness from 0% to 100%, we developed an application which allows you to change the brightness from -100% (dimmed) to +100% (very bright). No more eye blindness at night caused by your screen!
Features:
- A brightness range from -100% to +100%
- Below < 0% black overlay makes the screen darker
- Opacity of black overlay depends on your selected brightness level
- Easy to use / adjust
- Elegant
- No spyware / no commercials
Install
- Download and install the app
- Put the app on your home screen for quick use
Usage:
- Open the app via menu, a shortcut or notification bar
- A dialog will open with a brightness bar
- Select your new brightness level, it will auto save
- Touch outside the dialog and it will fade out
Note:
- We don't collect personal data and only want to make good apps
- The lowest brightness is locked to 90% black, so your screen is always visible

Excellent app, was searching for an app that could make the brightness lower than that of S2 default to preserve battery life and minimise eye strain, and this is it. Not too sure why something like this isn't simply built into Android. Great, simple UI too - keeps things easy to use.

I have purchased this with little doubt that it will do justice to what it is meant for because basically decresing brightness to negative value needs root access but this is really good that it is used to lay out a black layer over the display instead of decresing brightness.. No need of root access also... What ever.. It looks like decresing brightness of display.. So i will recommend this to who want to reduce stress over eyes..

Live this app. Just what I was looking for. I hate how it checks the license so often but it's worth it.

Omg yessss finally! No eye strain.... Update 9/6: I could do without the "license check" every time I open it. I'd also prefer a way to end the app without going into your phone's actual settings. Sometimes when I exit, my phone shoots to full brightness when I know for a fact I didn't have it that bright before using the app.

Overall, I really like this app. I have always felt that screens don't go dark enough and this is a simple work around. A couple of issues: On Nexus 5 and 10, it doesn't dim the bar at the bottom. Also the notification button just launches app info, not a shortcut for adjusting brightness. Another useful feature would be a time based switch, so you can specify a time when you want it to go dark, say 9pm or when you plug it into mains. Please can you look at these issues/requests, thanks.

App functions but license check every time of use makes this app a drag, especially combined with poor connection a very annoying app. Please change license check every time. I never saw any app doing that.. Annoying, especially if you paid for it! Grrrrr

Works great on my Acer Iconia A1 tab. To make it perfect it needs 1/ to be able to preset to a fixed level upon activation rather than having to manually do it everytime 2/ needs a presetable widget Go on Dev I know you can do it

Great idea but without dimming the nav bar useless. I enabled hiding the nav bar but that means I get blinded every time it pops up. OMOLED screens do very bright white!
