Great! I'll be trying this out tonight. Normally I set minimum brightness and use f.lux with the candle setting which makes everything dark orange and easy on the eyes.
Greyscale+Invert colours is nice(and I have a flipswitch for it) but it's only good if the thing I'm reading is on a bright background.
Either way, it's nice having the option. I just hope my home button doesn't get angry with me :)
It's night,i'm in my room with lights out.I turn iphone's brightness to the minimum and its way too dark ( even in these conditions,let alone dayline).Now tell me again,what is the use of this?
