Summary
Night Shift automatically shifts the colors of your browser content to the warmer end of the color spectrum after dark ⚡ You need to refresh all the tabs, which were opened BEFORE the Night Shift was installed. You can also restart the Edge to refresh all the tabs at once. Otherwise, Night Shift will work only with the newly opened tabs.
⚡In accordance with the Edge Browser policies, Night Shift is restricted to work on the Microsoft Store and Home Page. Please open any other website (for example, google.com) after installing this extension and check the extension in action.
This tiny app changes the color temperature of the Edge tabs (entire content) towards the yellowish part of the color spectrum, that reduces some of the blue light from the screen, thus, an eye strain during night-time use, helping to reduce the disruption of sleep patterns. This helps to have a better overall night's sleep.
You can manually choose the shift from color presets, to pick up the most comfortable and calm atmosphere for your eyes during the night sessions or through the all day long.
Night Shift provides itself on a scheduled basis, you can choose from 3 options:
- Sunset to Sunrise (Edge colors will be shaded every day automatically on Sunset).
- Off (manually enable the Night Shift to shade the screen)
