And what exactly was the issue with the built in Night Shift mode?

I think you should have instead filed an issue with f.lux rather than vibe code a redundant app.

The website looks like 50 other AI-generated product sites I've seen lately.

Night Shift has limited control, no quick access options etc.

f.lux has had an issue filed for more than 6 weeks with the solution being wait it out until Apple fixes it, with no confirmation that they are even aware of the issue or any planned date for a fix.

Not sure why you would think the app was vibe coded, nor why that would be an issue like anyone writes every line of code themselves anymore. Not the noble point of principle people think it is. If you're a good developer already it makes you faster - principles be damned.

The website is secondary to the app, and it's purpose is to be clean and simple to understand. I also doubt those websites have WebGL backgrounds, infinite carousels that don't bug out nor payment and licensing integrations that actually work.

Maybe try being more constructive in future, it's nice to be nice.

Just from the screenshots it looks like this has a bunch of features Night Shift doesn't have.
Thank you, and you're right - the main point of drift is to extend Night Shift to give more granular control, quick access options, and also help people who used f.lux and no longer can (all M5 Pro and M5 Max users), to get back to their regular flow.
