Review summary

Brightness Dimmer Pro is praised for its effective eye strain relief, helping with migraines and sleep by dimming screen brightness beyond default limits and offering color options for nighttime use. Users appreciate its simple and minimalistic design and battery-saving benefits. However, recent intrusive ads have led to dissatisfaction among long-time users. Several users report app crashes or failure to launch on newer phones, along with issues like brightness not affecting the notification bar, substantial app size, and insufficient guidance on necessary permissions.
Pros
  • Helps reduce eye strain and migraines by allowing brightness levels lower than default phone settings and providing color adjustments.
  • Minimalistic, simple, and easy to use interface.
  • Assists with sleep hygiene and reduces blue light exposure, especially beneficial for nighttime use.
  • Saves battery life by dimming the screen beyond phone's default capabilities.
  • Offers different color options to make phone use at night more comfortable.
Cons
  • Recently introduced ads, including full-screen ads that activate when interacting with controls, which users find intrusive.
  • App crashes immediately or fails to start on some newer phones.
  • Does not reduce brightness in the notification bar, limiting overall dimming effectiveness.
  • App size is considered large by some users, along with reports of battery drain.
  • Lack of clear instructions for permissions like "floating" required for app functionality.

Once without ads. Then they added annoying adds. And suddenly they added a background music whenever the filter is active. Just... Why...? Uninstall this and just look for another app.

Should no longer be listed as "no ads". This isn't your typical tolerable banner ad either, it literally opens a whole other window to play an ad the moment you touch the on/off button or slide the brightness bar. You have to tab out to close both the ad and program after. Had it for years and was a solid 5 star app until this, now uninstalled.

I've been using this app for several years now. It was just what I needed to help with bedtime & triggering migraines; a super dimmer that went lower than my phone's lowest factory settings could, & color-adjustment that let me drown out the blue spectrum before bed. It's also extremely helpful for ADHD; sleep hygiene is the best tool you have against insomnia, & this app helps me quiet my brain down every single night. *Ads do go away with the interface, but shutting it off you get fullscreens.

Should be listed as having ads like other similar but better apps. Bait and switch.

It used to be simple but effective without adds. Now it is simple but with annoying adds. The name of the maintainer needs adjustment and I believe the status should be changed to "contains adds". ☹️
