flux

The application with the help of display settings allows you to noticeably reduce eye strain while interacting with your mobile device. This is achieved by automatically adjusting the color temperature during the day. For the program to work, you need to grant maximum privileges in the system. Flux is a utility for Android-based mobile devices that allows you to change the color temperature of the screen. In this case, the adjustment depends on the time of day. For example, in the evening time, the share of blue color decreases. The developers assure that this allows you to normalize the circadian rhythm and accelerate the process of falling asleep.

Customization

At the first launch, the utility will request the rights to track the current location of the mobile device. This is necessary for correct operation. You can also manually specify the name of the locality where the user is located.

Color scheme

The location name or geolocation function is required to determine the exact time of sunset and sunrise. This data is in turn used to smoothly change the color temperature of the display based on the current time. This allows to optimize the color palette and make the work more comfortable for the user. Specialists believe that reducing the blue hue in the evening time noticeably reduces eye strain, especially when working for long periods of time. When working with photos or watching movies, such temperature adjustment can add inconvenience, so there is an option to quickly turn it off. Features of the Android platform do not allow such manipulations with the settings without root rights, so the utility and requests an increase in rights to the maximum level. The description also notes that the utility is still at the development stage, so some of the functions are not yet active.
