This is excellent information! I use my phone in bed, maybe too much, and wished for long time it could go lower. The Kindle app on my iPad will go lower so I knew it was possible. Thank you!
- kylebenzle 3y agoBy "information" you mean the idea that a screen brightness can be adjusted? I am honestly confused if you thought before reading this that pixels were somehow limited by how dim they could get?
- AeroNotix 3y agoIt might come as a shock but sometimes software is imperfect.
- jqr- 3y agoThe post gives instructions on how to lower the brightness below what the slider normally allows. It was useful news to me too.
- peddling-brink 3y agoThis was unnecessarily rude. Did you read the article? It’s about a specific accessibility setting that many won’t have thought to use for this purpose. Pixels that are driven by real hardware and software will be limited in how dim they get.
- bscphil 3y agoThis is not just the backlight setting: below a certain level the feature will darken the level of the pixels so that white (255, 255, 255) is reduced to something darker. On an OLED screen, of course, this just has the effect of allowing lower brightnesses than the phone's minimum, but on backlit screens it still has a surprisingly large effect.
