Really works well! One of my main apps
This is a review I posted for another app named "Quick Brightness". It is similar to this one, only faster. You can set your ultimate brightness with one click of the app which launches and closes it immediately. Thats great if all you need is two settings (your system brightness and a separate predetermined brightness). Im reposting that review here (which is also a review of this app) because the two used together give you complete functionality and control of your brightness.
"Quick Brightness" is a simple and easy app, but a few of the reviewers seem to be a bit confused on how to use it most efficiently. It is true this and all other apps like it will automatically default to the system brightness when you turn your iDevice off and then back on. This is by Apples restrictive design.
So what Ive done in using this app is to set it for my night viewing mode, which is just a hair above full dim. What I dont want is to turn my iDevice on in a dark area and have it blast out like a bright Flashlight. Well, it will anyway if my system brightness is high (which it usually is), but a quick tap on this app brings the screen way down in brightness instantly.
Thats what it does, and it does it well.
I also have installed the app "EZ brightness". If Im not going for the "quick dim" effect, I will launch EZ brightness instead. It will instantly switch to the last setting of three modes: off, night, or day. Like this app, the settings wont stick after you turn your equipment off, but its an easy tap to restore to where you were.
So I keep my system brightness at about 70%. I keep my EZ brightness choices at full dim for a night and full bright for day. As I mentioned, I keep "Quick Brightness" a hair above full dim for my normal night viewing.
All it takes is a little patience to figure out how these apps were designed, and then incorporate that design in your everyday practice. With these two apps together, I pretty much leave my system brightness alone and adjust on the fly as needed with just a couple of button pushes. Both of these are five-star apps in my book.
