## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Schrott

*2025-01-14, version 1.2.2*

Kein Widget.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2023-04-25*

As a side widget it doesn’t work. Crashes and acts strange.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t dim the screen

*2022-04-23*

This app only increases the brightness. That was definitely not clear when I wasted a dollar on it because I’m desperate

### 1/5 — Screenshot is misleading

*2021-12-02*

I thought the home screen version would be a slider. No, you get five levels: 0%, 100%, and three possibly useful settings. And each change triggers _two_ drastic flashes of the whole screen between off and full bright! And it isn't a modern widget for the iOS15 home screen, it only shows in the sidebar. 

The app version is a slider, but shows a plain background where you have no idea how a real screen would look. No advantage over the Apple slider. Or the free app. 

Oh, and the "support" page is just an ad for other apps.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2021-08-18*

Wouldn’t recommend

### 1/5 — Don’t work

*2018-10-04*

It’s the same as just turning the brightness down

### 1/5 — Don’t buy

*2018-08-16*

Doesn’t offer any addition darkness. Just adds an app that is a waste of space

### 2/5 — Widget?

*2021-04-04, version 1.2.2*

I cannot find the widget in my widget list.

### 2/5 — Not useful

*2020-11-03*

This app doesn’t adjust the brightness of your original phone brightness. Lowest is the phone brightness which means app is not useful.

### 5/5 — Read The Purpose

*2020-05-22*

I have major OCD, I have to know the percentage of my brightness same as my battery level at all times, an amazing way to use this app that I figured out is just lower your brightness level, open the app and see what exact percent you’re out. Adjust as you need. This app has calmed me down to a level I cannot express and I am so thankful for this app and the dev that has just updated it a day ago, thank you so so much for this, back when I had an android phone with an LG device, it always told me my brightness percent, switching to apple, it doesn’t show that, but this app made more so happy I could express in words, it’s eased my OCD so I can level out my brightness percent anytime I want. Thank you so much!
