Description

From the listing uploaded by “bbarao”.

Night Mode's main goal is to reduce the brightness of your screen lower than you can achieve with the default settings. This application applies an overlay filter that acts as a dimmer to darken the screen and ensure your eyes don't hurt. == Use Cases == - Prevent your eyes from hurting when the screen is too bright - Low light (In bed, theatre, cinema, ..) usage for reading, browsing, texting or gaming - Disable hardware or soft buttons backlight - If you have an AMOLED display, you can also save battery! == Permissions == - SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW: To show the dimmer overlay - INTERNET and ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: To send anonymous statistics and bug reports (you can disable them completely in the settings) and to show the ad (yeah, just one :-) Send me an Email if you have any problem, questions or suggestions! Keywords: night mode, nightmode, screen filter, dim screen, screen dimmer, low light screen, privacy filter, brightness, light, sensor

Night Mode 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 Night Mode APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store flagged this file with a security warning. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 420dedc32222de5cd7ff9d29803da0bd.
