          A workaround for now. I will not use the smartphone after 8:30pm to combat that pesky nighttime blue light. 💡 🙂

          How can you trust that an app really won't send some company your location data, when you tell it not to? The only way you can trust a program not to do something it isn't supposed to do is if it is free software. ~ RMS

            @Opolork in the meantime there's a proper solution, you could use a blue light filter screen protector on your device, or even use glasses with that kind of filter 😉

              Those are also valid workarounds. Although I think it's good to ditch the smartphone around 8:30pm anyway - to wind down for the night. I go to bed at 10:45pm. 🙂

                @Opolork wrong answer! You need to keep testing and improving UT until 4 a.m. at least 😆

                  Propose (and get accepted) this addition to the Mir project.

                  I've added an issue to the Mir project. (But it won't be scheduled in the foreseeable future.)

                    Far too late for an extreme early bird like me. 😉 🐦
