Night Shift only gives a small red shift compared to f.lux.
- r00fus 9y agoNight Shift is decent on iOS (well it's the only option) because screen is relatively small, but I'll keep f.lux on Mac for now - candle setting makes a big difference - I've worn blue-blocking glasses before and it really helped but better to not have to wear them.
- nkkollaw 9y agoPerhaps even too much (at least for me).
- CodeWriter23 9y agoNight Shift on iOS isn't terrible, I feel the benefit from it watching some streaming as I lull to sleep. But when I had f.lux on my iPad, I had shorter times to get to sleep. The screen would become so devoid of blue...everything was extremely red. Like weird red. The weird thing though, my brain adjusted to it after about 2-3 minutes. Science officer uniforms (Star Trek) still looked blue to me, even though they were more akin to a reddish-block in actual color. IMO Apple chose the aesthetic of less red shift and traded away the sleep-assisting benefits of a more pronounced shift.
