In this article, I’ll demonstrate how to adjust the color temperature and brightness of your screen using CareUEyes.

CareUEyes features eight preset modes, making it easier for you to use. Each mode is pre-set with optimal color temperature and brightness settings. You won’t need to repeatedly adjust these settings to find suitable parameters; simply select one of the preset modes that suits your needs.

CareUEyes filters blue light by adjusting the color temperature—lower temperatures mean less blue light.

The difference between the eight preset modes

Pause Mode: If you’re working on tasks that demand precise color accuracy, such as editing photos in Photoshop, you can select Pause mode.

Health Mode: As the default mode for all users, Health mode effectively filters blue light, reduces screen brightness, and provides optimal comfort for the eyes. If you’re unsure which mode to choose, start with Health mode.

Game Mode: Given the high color requirements in gaming, Game mode minimally alters game colors while only adjusting screen brightness. This subtle adjustment enhances eye comfort during gameplay.

Movie Mode: Movies also require accurate color representation, so Movie mode slightly adjusts color temperature and brightness without compromising the movie’s color accuracy.

Office Mode: For new CareUEyes users struggling to adjust to color changes in Health mode, it’s recommended to start with Office mode. Once accustomed, transitioning to Health mode is advised for more effective blue light filtering and eye protection.

Editing Mode: Editing mode inverts screen colors, ideal for editing documents in Word or Excel and for coding. With white backgrounds transformed into black after inversion, most blue light is reduced. CareUEyes’ editing mode offers a more comfortable dark gray background compared to other software, minimizing eye strain caused by stark contrasts.

One drawback of editing mode is potential color distortion in images, though this is generally not a concern when editing text.

Reading Mode: Reading mode converts screen colors to black and white, simulating an e-ink device, making it ideal for reading text.

Custom Mode: If none of the above modes suit your needs, Custom mode allows you to customize color temperature and brightness.

How to Adjust Preset Color Temperature and Brightness:

Except for Pause mode, other modes allow manual adjustment of preset color temperature and brightness.

Adjusting Color Temperature: First Method: Drag or click the color temperature slider left to decrease color temperature, and right to increase it. Lower color temperatures emit less blue light from the screen.

The third method entails selecting the color temperature value from the tray’s right-click menu.

Adjusting Brightness:

The primary method involves dragging or clicking the brightness slider left to decrease brightness, and right to increase it.

The second method involves setting hotkeys to swiftly adjust brightness.

The third method entails selecting the brightness value from the tray’s right-click menu.

How to Restore Default Parameters:

Click the Reset button to revert the color temperature and brightness of the current mode to their default settings.

How to Activate Sunrise/Sunset Mode:

1. Toggle the switch for sunrise/sunset mode.

2.Click the “Config” button to access the sunrise/sunset settings page.

3.Setting the Sunrise/Sunset Time:

There are two methods for setting the sunrise/sunset time.

The first method is based on geographical location. The program first needs to retrieve the user’s current address location and then automatically calculate the sunrise/sunset time based on that geographical location.

The second option is to customize the sunrise/sunset time. You can adjust the sunrise/sunset time in the edit box and then click the OK button to save the setting.

In today’s digital age, where we spend significant amounts of time in front of computer screens, protecting our eyesight is more important than ever. One effective way to reduce eye strain and discomfort is by investing in an anti-glare computer screen. Here are some tips to help you choose the right one:

1. Screen Material:

When it comes to anti-glare computer screens, the material plays a crucial role. Opt for screens made of high-quality materials such as tempered glass or optical-grade acrylic. These materials not only provide excellent durability but also ensure superior optical clarity, minimizing distortions and enhancing your viewing experience.

2. Reflection Coatings:

Check for advanced reflection coatings on the screen surface. These coatings work by diffusing incoming light, thereby reducing glare and reflections. Look for screens with multi-layered anti-reflective coatings, which effectively minimize glare without compromising color accuracy or image sharpness. Additionally, consider screens with oleophobic coatings that repel fingerprints and smudges, keeping your display clean and clear.

3. Transmission Rates:

Pay attention to the screen’s transmission rates, which determine the amount of light that passes through the screen. Anti-glare screens typically offer varying levels of light transmission, ranging from 30% to 65% or higher. The choice of transmission rate depends on your ambient lighting conditions and personal preferences. In brightly lit environments with high glare, opt for screens with lower transmission rates to effectively reduce glare and improve visibility.

4. Additional Considerations:

• Adjustability: Look for screens with adjustable settings for brightness and color temperature. This allows you to tailor the display according to your comfort and the surrounding lighting conditions.

• Compatibility: Ensure that the anti-glare screen is compatible with your computer model and monitor type. Consider factors such as screen size, aspect ratio, and mounting options to ensure a seamless integration with your setup.

• Warranty and Support: Check the warranty coverage offered by the manufacturer, as well as their reputation for customer support and after-sales service. A reliable warranty ensures peace of mind and protection against any potential defects or issues with the screen.

• ISO 9241-7 compliance:This will ensure that the filter you purchased has passed the highest standard glare reduction test.

The technique uses a timer to break down work into intervals, traditionally 25 minutes in length, separated by short breaks. Each interval is known as a Pomodoro, from the Italian word for ‘tomato’, after the tomato-shaped kitchen timer that Cirillo used as a university student. – Wikipedia

Then when the 4 Pomodoro clocks are completed, the numbers in parentheses will be recalculated starting from 1

The Advanced Color API is a term used by Windows developers. It uses GPU rendering and supports high dynamic range (HDR), wide color gamut (WCG), and high-precision (bit depth) visual content such as videos, games, and photos. Compared with the Color API, the Advanced Color API has better compatibility and performance.

CaeUEyes calls the Color API by default when adjusting the color temperature and brightness, but the Color API cannot work on some devices and must enable the Advanced Color API. Since it is impossible to accurately identify which devices need to enable the Advanced Color API, there may be a problem that CareUEyes does not work properly on some users’ computers because the Advanced color API features are not enabled.

In order to solve this problem, after the user newly installs CareUEyes, a pop-up will ask the user whether CareUEyes is working properly. If CareUEyes is not working properly, the Advanced Color API will be enabled.

However, there is a shortcoming when the Advanced Color API is enabled. It will cause the color of the picture to turn yellow when taking a screenshot, such as a screenshot below.

Therefore, it is recommended that for users who have enabled the advanced color API, it is best to set a hotkey to quickly disable and enable CareUEyes. You can use the hotkey to disable CareUEyes before taking the screenshot, and then use the hotkey to enable CareUEyes after the screenshot is completed, so that the color of the screenshot will not be distorted.
