## Review summary

Users appreciate this app for effectively dimming the screen beyond standard brightness levels with an intuitive and lightweight design suitable for newer Android versions. Key features like color correction and timers receive praise. However, many users report intrusive ads, unwanted auto-activation after restart, glitches affecting overlay appearance and device security prompts, and lack of dimming for navigation and notification bars. Notifications persisting after shutdown further impact user experience.

### Pros

- Effectively dims the screen beyond default brightness for eye comfort in dark environments.
- Simple and intuitive user interface with quick access to adjust brightness and color filter settings.
- Lightweight, non-intrusive, and works well with newer Android versions (8.0 and above).
- Allows color correction and timer functionality, enhancing usability.
- Minimal ads when settings remain unchanged, leading to an ad-light experience after initial adjustment.

### Cons

- Frequent and intrusive ads, especially during navigation and setting changes.
- App auto-starts and dims screen after device restart without user control.
- Overlay glitches causing partial screen dimming or issues with OS security prompts and authorization dialogs.
- Does not dim the notification bar or navigation buttons, leaving parts of the screen bright.
- Notification icon remains persistent after app shutdown with no clear option to quit from the notification bar.
