The effect is like a warming filter, like reading by candlelight or perhaps even a warm fire with a glass of quality scotch.Night Shift, the feature first introduced in iOS devices with iOS 9.3, has expanded to the Mac with the release of 10.12.4.
In the morning, it returns the display to its regular settings. Night Shift uses your iOS device’s clock and geolocation to determine when it’s sunset in your location, then it automatically shifts the colors in your display to the warmer end of the spectrum. Here’s Apple: Many studies have shown that exposure to bright blue light in the evening can affect your circadian rhythms and make it harder to fall asleep. Night Shift ramps up the yellows, oranges, and reds on your iPhone or iPad’s screen. Many studies, then, tout the negative effects of staring into screens after sunset. In scientific language: melanopsin communicates with the suprachiasmatic nucleus in your brain, an area responsible for regulating your internal clock and sleep patterns. When melanopsin - which was only discovered around the turn of the century - encounters blue light, it essentially shouts “ daytime! awake!” at your brain. Specifically, blue light is thought to affect a photoreceptor called melanopsin in your eyes. And then the following day, on fewer hours of sleep, you’re going to miss even more Instagram and Twitter posts. So, when you’re scrolling through the Instagram or Twitter posts you might’ve missed during your busy, exhausting day before rolling over and going to bed, you’re asking for trouble: The more you vacuously stare into your device’s microcosm, the less likely you are to simply, peacefully drift off to sleep. Devices, such as laptops and smartphones, emit a bunch of the stuff. Scores of scientists and researchers think themselves to have proven that blue light - as in, literally, blue light - makes you more prone to sleeplessness Night Shift limits the amount of blue light that your Apple device emits. This update includes one particularly utilitarian feature, dubbed “Night Shift,” that’s only meant to help you sleep. On Monday, along with showing off its new iPhone SE, 9.7-inch iPad Pro, and “ spaceship,” Apple released an update to iOS 9: iOS 9.3.
