So the M5 firmware has some limitations and bugs that broke one of my favourite apps, after a while I found a thread that basically said certain devices don't allow modification of the gamma layer in the display. I started building a util for myself but it grew arms and legs, eventually it turned into a small app which i wanted to share, as it solves night shift issues which are still present in f.lux. If you work late like me, but you like your eyes to not be on fire when you go to sleep, please take a look at Drift :)

Thanks - Jack

On mobile there’s weird copy ragging and you’ve left out a word or two.

Product looks nice. Hope does it compare to Apple’s built-in Night Shift?

Seems like a bug that slipped through with the GSAP split text animation, thanks for letting me know and for the nice feedback.

The app utilises Night Shift directly to provide more granular scheduling controls and quick access features. Snooze is helpful for me when I work late, because if you need to design something, you need to disable tint temporarily and not have to think about it again.

The main aim is to make it easier to manage settings, and give more control to users, not ground breaking, just helpful :)
