blue light filter

Display warmth setting

A blue light filter reduces the amount of blue light emitted by a screen.

Blue light is thought to disrupt sleep patterns, so many devices offer a filter or "night mode" that shifts the display toward warmer, yellower tones: I turn on the blue light filter after sunset.

Some glasses also incorporate blue light filtering.
