Other What’s your screen brightness set to?

[Aspyred]

I have a iPhone 12 Pro and turn auto-brightness off. I typically set mine to about 33% (top of the sun icon) during the day.

In the evenings, I lower it to the bottom of the sun icon.

In bed, it’s either at the lowest level or I turn on the White Point Reduction setting (I have the shortcut set where 3 presses of the Sleep/Wake button activates this).

What about you?

I just use auto-brightness. It has always been adequate for me. I've never felt it was too bright or too dim.

I just stick to auto brightness. In most situations it adjusts fine for me. For the few times I need to adjust, I just bring up control center and adjust.

I have auto brightness turned off. I keep the screen around 30 - 35% brightness.

I guess I’m in the minority - I’m super stingy with my screen brightness.

Auto brightness turned off and set to 45% using light mode.

On my retired 6s I set brightness manually to about 25%

On my 11 I use auto-brightness which is quite good

Auto brightness turned off and set to 45% using light mode.

That is still way too white. You should try dark mode. It helps increase battery life and is easier on the eyes.

I have auto-brightness off and brightness set to about 65%. It's been this way for a while now.

Forgot to mention! Yes, I use Dark Mode and try to ensure it’s set on pps that don’t automatically inherit that, like with Reddit.

Reddit, for example, has a dark mode but in the settings, you can enable an even darker mode if memory serves.

I try to save as much battery as possible. “Battery/range anxiety”, as they say with electric vehicles, is certainly a thing with me.

Ok, you’re right. I turned on dark mode and was able to lower the brightness to 35%. I think that I like it, but I‘ll have to get used to the dark mode. Although I may have to switch back for my course work and tests, depending.

1/3 once it’s dark and all the way up during the day with auto brightness

Set to auto, sometimes at home I find even auto too bright, so I turn it down further. Daytime indoors is mostly 20-30%, nights 10-15%, outdoors mostly at max.
