Night reading is one of life's greatest pleasures for book lovers However, reading in the dark is not recommended for eye he alth, even when you have agood size smartphone or tablet And it is that the blue light emitted by these devices generates eye fatigue, forcing eyes to strain and tire them out after a while of this activity.However, Google has found the key to avoid this. It's called Night Light and this is how it works.
This is a feature added to your app reader Google Play Books A tool that no longer just integrates a library withbooks, magazines and documents purchased on Google Play or uploaded from email; a translator or the possibility of taking notes, but now adjusts to reading hours by reducing the emission of blue light and enabling this activity for longer with less aftermath.
To do this, Night Light is in charge of regulating the color and brightness on the screen at night. The curious thing is that this is done progressive, as the sunset arrives.This changes the shade of the screen to a warmer amber color, which prevents the emission of blue light and therefore reduces the sensation of eyestrain and eye fatigue that tend to be caused by the screens of electronic devices. All this so that the user does not have to do anything more than turn the pages and concentrate on reading.
The first thing to do is update the Google Play Books application by downloading its latest version available at Google Play Store if you have a mobile Android, or through the App Store in the case of having an Apple device It is a completely free application This latest version has been released progressive, as usual by Google , so at the time of publishing this article it may not yet be available to all users.
After that you only have to access the application and select one of the books from the library. The first time it is done, a new tutorial screen informs of the existence of the function Night Light, with the option to activate it instantly. If not, it is always possible to display the application menu and access Settings Here is the option to be activated.
With this, the user no longer has to worry about anything else, since Google Play Books detects the time of sunsetand therefore the times at which the screen brightness and hue should change. A modification of the colors that tend towards orange in order to avoid blue light, and that remains activated forever, returning to its usual tone during daylight hoursOf course, if you want to enjoy all the brightness of the screen during the hours of absence of light, it is always possible to deactivate this new feature from the menu Settings, as activated.
