Review summary

Users praise Screen & Notifications Dimmer for strong, flexible dimming and ease of use, with features like scheduling and per-app dimming. It helps reduce eye strain and PWM headaches and remains reliable across devices. Common downsides include inconsistent dimming across some apps, persistent permission prompts, occasional failures to auto-enable after updates or in battery-saver modes, and rating prompts plus LCD compatibility caveats. Overall, a lightweight, effective night-use dimmer with a solid feature set.

Pros

Extremely effective dimming beyond the phone's native brightness limits via a color overlay.
Very easy to use with shake-to-dim and a handy quick actions panel.
Feature-rich: auto scheduling, per-app dimming, hex color filter, and generally low ads.
Helps reduce eye strain and PWM headaches, especially useful for night use and very dark content.
Long-term reliability and broad device compatibility, with users keeping it for years

Cons

Dimming is not consistent across all apps or content; some elements may override the dimmer.
Repeated permission prompts appear even when the feature is already enabled.
Not always automatically re-enabled after updates or when entering low power mode.
Rating/feedback prompts can be annoying for users.
May not look perfect on LCD screens or have some compatibility quirks on certain devices
