How to Make Android Phone Screen Brightness Lower than Settings Allow

Hi,

Recently picked up a Galaxy s10e from the JB deal.

I find the screen still too bright on the lowest phone setting, especially at night. Is there a way to lower the screen brightness even more than the settings allow?

many thanks

    Did you turn off dynamic brightness as well?

    I used to use screen filter.
    I could basically use my phone in a cinema without any noticeable light because it was almost a pitch black screen

      I second the screen filter app. It's simple and does the job.

        Yeh, I used to use screen filter too. Works well. The install function of Android stops working if the screen filter is activated tho.

    i use kernel aduitor app and it has the setting under screen (screen value and screen contrast will get what you need). Not sure if it works or is available for unrooted phones

    I used an app called nightmode. which gave me an even lower slider of brightness.

    Is there a way to search for smartphone apps using a search term like "screen brightness"? Maybe there could be something like a Google Play store where such apps exist.

    I use blue light filter. You're able to change colours, have a timer so it reduces brightness at night automatically. Pretty good app.

  • Thanks for all the replies. I will try the suggested options.

    we even wrote a song about it.

    I wear my sunglasses at night
    So I can so I can
    Watch you weave then breathe your story lines
    And I wear my sunglasses at night
    So I can so I can
    Keep track of the visions in my eyes
    While she's deceiving me
    It cuts my security has
    She got control of me
    I turn to her and say
    Don't switch the blade on the guy in shades oh no
    Don't masquerade with the guy in shades oh no
    I can't believe it!
    'Cause you got it made with the guy in shades oh no
    And I wear my sunglasses at night
    So I can so I can
    Forget my name while you collect your claim
    And I wear my sunglasses at night
    So I can so I can
    See the light that's right before my eyes
    While she's deceiving me
    She cuts my security
    Has she got control of me
    I turn to her and say
    Don't switch the blade on the guy in shades oh no
    Don't masquerade with the guy in shades oh no
    I can't believe it!
    'Cause you got it made with the guy in shades oh no
    'Cause you got it made with the guy in shades oh no
    Oh I say I wear my sunglasses at night
    I wear my sunglasses at night
    I wear my sunglasses at night

      I took the bait and clicked. Can't believe I never realised how similar it opens compared to Eurythmics Sweet Dreams.
