Reasons why you should turn on night shift mode if you own an iOS devices

Published

on

The screen of the smartphone we use releases bright blue light which helps us to see it even in the brightest daylight.

However, blue light imitates the sun’s brightness, therefore, making your brain confused by that light during nighttime. Not to mention the fact that it’ll affect your sleeping schedule hence leading to unhealthy sleeping patterns and also causing serious health problems.

Looking at your phone till late in general, is a pretty bad idea. But if you own an iOS device, you must be very similar to Night Shift feature. You can set this feature as soon as the daylight is gone i.e. you can set it at whatever time you want in the evening. Enabling Night Shift adjusts the display of your phone automatically releasing less and mild blue light.

How to activate Night Shift Mode in iPhone and Mac

For iPhone, you need to open Control Center first. After that, you have to press the brightness bar firmly. Lastly, all you need to do is tap the night shift on.

For Mac, you can click the notification center located at the top right corner in the menu bar. Then you can simply click on the night shift and it will be enabled.

Benefits of Enabling Night Shift Mode

Blue light has been a major threat to our health as we are exposed to it much more than ever before. Back in 2016, Apple came up with the solution to fight the blue light which was iOS’s Night Shift.

  1. Night Shift not only deems the brightness of the screen but also reduces the blue light of the screen which is harmful for our eyes and body. Therefore, it helps in reducing the negative health effects caused by blue light.
  2. Night Shift makes our eyes feel less stressed which is why it has been many people’s favorite addition by iOS.
  3. The bright blue light released by the screen stops the brain from producing melatonin (a hormone produced for sound sleep) causing disruption in the sleeping cycle. As Night mode reduces the unhealthy blue light from the screen, it may as well help people to get better quality sleep.

The biggest question that has been asked is, does enabling Night mode really help in getting better sleep?

Although there isn’t much information about Night mode feature helping in proper sleep, it has been the greatest addition in the feature of iOS.

Preview of the Clock app on macOS Ventura: Right on time

Published

on

By

Each year, the new major version of macOS is enriched with applications from iOS. macOS Monterey won Shortcuts, macOS Ventura welcomes Weather and Clock. These two applications have been brought through Catalyst , the gateway between the iPad and the Mac. We won’t come back to the Mac version of Weather that we already presented in a previous article , or just to say that it is complete and pleasant to use.

The Clock app on macOS Ventura

If you know the iPad’s Clock app, you know the Mac’s “new” Clock app. The two versions are identical, except for a few details. The interface has been slightly adapted for the big screen and the mouse of the Mac: the tabs are not at the bottom of the window, but at the top. There is no “Edit” button in the Clocks and Alarm sections, you have to hover over the saved clocks and alarms to reveal a small cross allowing them to be deleted (or make a secondary click on the clock). A few other interface elements have been tweaked with Catalyst to look more natural on the Mac.

The application has not yet been fully translated in this first beta

As on iPad, the application icon in the Dock is dynamic, it displays the real time. On the other hand, it lacks the second hand. Maybe it will come in an upcoming beta.

Apple has made a small effort to integrate with macOS. When you activate a timer, the countdown is displayed in the menu bar.

Actions are available in Shortcuts to automatically trigger certain features based on other apps or various actions. This compatibility with Shortcuts allows an interesting integration to its workflow.

Finally, you can ask Siri to create timers and alarms. You can also go through the voice assistant to know the time in a city at the end of the world.

The Clock app on macOS Ventura is therefore no surprise and should suit you if you are satisfied with its mobile version. Apple could make it more attractive (an additional light theme, several simultaneous timers…), but this criticism is not specific to this Mac version.
