Frequently Asked Questions

How do I adjust the brightness?

You can adjust brightness in two ways:

  • Slider: Use the brightness slider at the bottom of the screen
  • Gesture: Swipe up or down on the light panel to quickly adjust brightness

How do I change the color temperature?

To change color temperature:

  • Slider: Use the color temperature slider (shows Kelvin values from 2700K to 6500K)
  • Gesture: Swipe left or right on the light panel
  • Presets: Tap one of the 5 preset pills for quick color changes
  • Color Button: Tap the "Color" button in the bottom navigation for detailed controls

How do I use the timer?

To set a reading timer:

  1. Tap the "Timer" button in the bottom navigation
  2. Select a duration (15, 30, 45, 60, or 120 minutes)
  3. Optionally enable "Auto-dim" to gradually reduce brightness
  4. Tap "Start Timer"

You can extend the timer by watching a rewarded ad for +5 minutes.

How do I hide the controls?

Simply tap anywhere on the light panel to hide or show the controls. This gives you a distraction-free reading experience.

What are the different presets?

The app includes 5 carefully crafted presets:

  • Reading: Warm, comfortable light for extended reading
  • Warm: Very warm light for bedtime reading
  • Cool: Cooler light for daytime reading
  • Night: Dim, warm light for late-night reading
  • Focus: Bright, neutral light for studying

How do I view my reading statistics?

Tap the "Stats" button in the bottom navigation to view:

  • Today's reading time
  • Weekly reading chart
  • Favorite color temperatures
  • Average brightness
  • Reading streaks

You can also share your statistics with friends!

Does the app drain my battery?

The app is optimized for minimal battery usage:

  • OLED-optimized dark theme
  • Efficient rendering
  • No background processes

However, keeping your screen on for extended periods will naturally use battery. We recommend using the timer feature to manage reading sessions.

Is my data private?

Yes! All your reading statistics and preferences are stored locally on your device. We never transmit your personal data to our servers. See our Privacy Policy for details.

How do I control ad personalization?

To control ad personalization:

  1. Tap the "Settings" button in the bottom navigation
  2. Find "Ad Personalization" under Privacy & Ads
  3. Toggle the setting on or off

When disabled, you'll still see ads, but they won't be based on your interests.

Why does the app need wakelock permission?

The wakelock permission keeps your screen on while you're reading. This prevents the screen from turning off mid-session, ensuring uninterrupted reading.

Can I use this app for other purposes besides reading?

Absolutely! While designed for reading, you can use the app as:

  • A night light
  • Ambient lighting
  • A study light
  • Mood lighting

  1. Restart the app
  2. Clear the app cache in your device settings
  3. Make sure you have the latest version installed
  4. Restart your device
