I like it because at night when I'm on my phone I use it and can still see
everything around me and when I wake up to check a notification my screen
doesn't blind me this app is really good and the only reason I didn't give
it a 5 is because sometimes screen dimmer goes out and my screen is back
bright again it could be just my phone but fix that and it's guaranteed to
be a 5
★★★★★
Very useful for big screen. I love it bcz there no ads coming when i use
it. I love this apps.
★★★★★
It works but still has an issue with on-screen buttons and phones with a
notch—the filter didn't reach those places.
★★★★★
This app used to be bomb but since the Android update, the drop down
notification panel and any pop up notifications are at max brightness when
the dimmer app is active. Very disruptive and barely usable now. What's the
point when the screen will randomly blind you from time to time. It went
from a 5* app to a 2* app with the new "functionality."
★★☆☆☆
my screen was so dark I had to restart to uninstall it.
★★☆☆☆
Used to work great, but now the app will randomly turn itself off and on
while I'm using it in the dim hours I have it set for, blinding me.
★★☆☆☆
Actually increases the brightness of the top and bottom bars, and the
controls have no effect on these. Net effect is very dim middle of the
screen with two very bright edges. Useless
★★☆☆☆
Notification bar and lock screen are not dim anymore. Samsung was just
updated so I think that's the problem. Please fix!
