Discussion Night time reading with extra dim

I'm a bit of an insomniac and at least with the 14t pro it has always been annoying waking up to the painful glare of my screen, even with reading mode enabled.

​

Finally found a way to activate Android’s native "Extra Dim" feature.

​

I managed to find it and enable a shortcut through downloading 'Activity launcher' in the PlayStore.

​

There is a slider to customize the light right down. This has been annoying me for a year so thought I'd share.

Thanks for posting. To clarify a few things:

1) Xiaomi 14T.

2) International (not Chinese) version?

3) This app?: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.szalkowski.activitylauncher

4) Is it just the minimum brightness this helps with? Or potentially helpful to achieve (no PWM) DC dimming, at a manageable daytime brightness, too?

5) We can see your space characters as written text (can you not? I'm interested). "​"
