brightness adjustment

Screen intensity setting

Brightness adjustment is the act of changing how light or dark an image, screen, or display appears.

The term is common in photography, video editing, and device settings: I made a brightness adjustment so the photo wasn't so washed out.

Most devices offer automatic brightness adjustment based on ambient light.
