How does Night Shift in iOS 9.3 beta look in the settings?

[pttptppt]

So I'm super excited for this new feature!!! I just wanted to know, for people that are using the beta, how does the option look in settings? Does it work atm in beta? Do you feel it's easier to sleep?

First it's only going to be available on 64-bit devices (A7 chip and higher)
This is what it looks like in the settings app:

It works in the beta, and for me I haven't noticed a difference for falling asleep easier but that will vary per person.

As for falling asleep easier, not sure. But my eyes do like it a lot better.

Do you have to use a Mac to get it on the phone?

1. So I have an iPhone 6s, it'll work on that?
2. Are there any noticeable color or shade differences? For example in pictures or in general?

It works on the phone, no computer needed.

Sure does. Using it on a 6s now.

It makes everything more of a yellowish color for warmth rather than white/blue.

Not sure how much I like it but I'll leave it on for now to see how it does.

Well it only does that at night so it should be fine right?

Same here, I do like it better, especially in a dark room, also use f.lux on my laptop.

I think so. It did activate a bit earlier to reduce some of the color. Subtle though.

Thanks so much!! That was very helpful! I'm very excited for this feature and I don't mind at all the yellow tint as long as it's only for night when I need it

It's adjustable too which is good. I don't like it butterscotch! subtle color is nice so far.

I downloaded the beta specifically for this feature. I love it. As someone who wears glasses and looks at electronic devices all day, I can say it is incredibly useful. It's purpose is not to help you fall asleep, rather it is to alleviate eye strain of looking at blue light (simulated sunlight) in dark environments.

I like the way it can set times for you automatically based on your location and time zone and you also have the option to set your own on/off times. Very handy.

does Nightmode make apps dark as well like this?

No, Night Shift only affects the color of the backlight.
