Gentle Glow: Onyx BOOX

💡frontlight presets, custom configs and scheduling for Onyx BOOX tablets

Control your Onyx BOOX frontlight 💡 with presets, custom configs and scheduling ⏰.

Look for the included quick settings tile.

Pro tip: setup a floating navigation ball button to launch the Gentle Glow, so always have it at your fingertips, including on the lock screen. You now have a light switch inside the dialog, so you never have pull down quick settings for this if you don't want to.

⚠️With this app, you have finer control over the frontlight than with the native sliders. Native controls may show unexpected settings while Gentle Glow is in charge. Don't panic. You can always revert to the last known good system setting from the three vertical dots (kebab) menu in Gentle Glow.

In the warmth & brightness dialog, you get to choose between three configurations.

Initially, you get four presets:

* Night, to be used in a dark bedroom.

* Dawn, to be used at first daylight, before sunrise

* Day, to be used at day time indoors or in the shade

* Sunset

You can easily adjust the brightness or warmth on any of the four configurations. Just play with the sliders or with the fine tune buttons to the left and right of the sliders, and your changes are auto-saved.

Should you use the frontlight under any completely different circumstance, say on the subway, you can easily rename any of these configurations to Subway and fine tune the warmth and brightness to your daily commute needs.

At any time, you can go back to any of the presets.

The Onyx Slider configuration is there just so changing the frontlight settings via the system sliders doesn't silently change your current configuration.

The Onyx Slider configuration is also a good way to get your system sliders back to a known good state, see the warning above.
