Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

This app shows an overlay (always on top window) showing a color chosen by you which dims the screen or filters its colors. This may help a night to relax your eyes as most phones screens are to bright and could permantly damage your eyes when staring at it to long while it's dark around you. Additionally screens with a tint of blue have been associated with insomnia when stared at before going to sleep. By selecting a red or yellow filter some of the blue colors emitted by your device aren't shown anymore which might prevent this (No scientific confirmation on the effect of this app) Feel free to contact me at [email protected]

Color Filter APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the Color Filter APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 443ec1e6f89a6e2728bfc714c7cfd501.
