f.lux is my go-to for this, but I like how NightTone offers more color choices. Magenta Mac!

If they added a feature that reminded you to turn it off when you are shopping online, that would be sweet. Never f.lux and buy clothes at the same time.

@zolihonig You can disable Flux per-app basis, highly recommended if you're doing some web-design in sketch or photoshop, lol!

@schpn Well what am I supposed to do with this orange-ish white shirt !?

@zolihonig Well, if it was something like full-orange you could do a somewhat non-legit Product Hunt shirt and get away with it, but honestly orange-ish white sounds like something hard to work on.

I wonder how hard it would be to make a product like flux or NightTone but focused on testing usability, maybe color blind mode to test our choices are not fucked for those -modes- of viewing our world. maybe getting your screen somewhat blurry could be pretty close to what a person with myopia or the like would see without their glasses. I don't know, just random rambling.

@schpn There are a few tools that do that... Have a play with Color Oracle (http://colororacle.org) and NoCoffee (https://accessgarage.wordpress.com).

@mikesten Thank you very much, didn't knew of the existence of them, but it makes sense it already does!

Nice one - does this work with multiple screens? (specifically, USB-connected non-Apple ones, eg Asus MB168)

Is it auto screen brightness or just scheduled (ie. dims when the lighting in the room is poor)? That's the one big fault with f.lux.

I'm always curious what the motivation behind making a product like this is. One that clearly has a very very strong competitor that is well loved by the community. I imagine the creator has some specific features they never liked in f.lux but still would love to hear the story.

What features would convince me to switch from f.lux?

@malonehedges With NightTone you can also change the color of the light, not only orange. For example, people with photophobia are sensible to red (it actually depends here). Or, for example, you can use the green light spectrum to read better long text 😄
