The Night Mode feature for Android 7.0 was expected to provide users with the ability to eradicate the blue light on the display.
Now, users of the HTC U Ultra will be able to peruse the functionality as a new YouTube video shows off how the feature can be activated.
The Night Mode addition lends an amber look to the screen. In the absence of a blue light emanating from the screen, a user may find it easier to fall asleep as removing the light would make the screen look warmer. This would prevent the light from affecting the user's sleep cycle.
How Does It Work?
The developer preview of Android 7.0 had Night Mode included in it. However, by the time the OS launched for the public, the mode was hidden. Even Night Mode Enabler, a third-party app which is supposed to help reveal the feature in handsets running on Android 7.0, has been disabled by Android 7.1.
Now, it seems that the recently-launched HTC U Ultra is going to offer to users the Night Mode feature out of the box.
How To Enable The Night Mode
HTC has released a 30-second YouTube video showcasing how the U Ultra users can enable and utilize the feature. Following the simple steps below will ensure that the Night Mode is activated on in HTC U Ultra.
Step 1: Scroll down the notification bar.
Step 2: Click the "Night Mode" option in the Quick Setting to turn it on.
Users can also modify and put custom options on the Night Mode in order for it to turn itself on or off at a certain point of time. The steps below show how users can customize the Night Mode easily.
Step 1: Go to Settings on your HTC U Ultra.
Step 2: From Settings, navigate to "Display, Gestures & Buttons" option.
Step 3: Next, click on Night Mode.
Step 4: The Night Mode will allow the users to change the color temperature and schedules and enable it automatically.
Although HTC has uploaded a video showing the steps on how users can enable the Night Mode, some YouTube users have not found it very helpful and have termed it as "awkward."
"Seriously 32 seconds of my life wasted watching this video. Wow what's next would you like to show us on the next video on how to open the dialer on a smartphone," complained a YouTuber.
