The Missing Brightness Widget

The Missing Brightness Control Hello, I'm the developer of The Missing Brightness Widget. Like me, you were wondering why there wasn't a widget for the Home screen that allows you to adjust brightness? Well, I made it for you (and especially for me hehe). HOWEVER, before you get too excited, read the limitations below: - It's not possible to have sliders in widgets, so these are buttons - It's not possible to do much from a widget, so when you tap, the app launches and it handles the action - It's not possible to change Brightness, Dark Mode or Night Shift from an app, so the app uses Shortcuts (provided) Also, note: when you change brightness it will work for a time, and then auto-brightness will kick out, changing the value for you. If you don't want this, you can turn off auto-brightness in: Settings > Accessibility > Display & Text Size > Auto-Brightness So, I'm sorry, it's only a partial victory, but even in this state, I find it useful, and I hope it will work for you too. What we're all waiting for; a native widget to adjust brightness from the Home screen; doesn't exist and can not be done. I would have loved to make it better, but it's not possible. Only Apple can make it. KEY FEATURES • Quick Brightness Control Set your screen brightness instantly with five customizable preset buttons. • Customizable Brightness Presets Configure each brightness button to your exact preference (0-100%). Long press any brightness button to adjust its value. • Run iOS Shortcuts Two customizable action buttons let you trigger any iOS Shortcut directly from the widget. Provided shortcuts include Toggle Dark Mode and Toggle Night Shift, but you can assign any shortcut you want. Choose from many icons for your action buttons. • Home Screen Widget Add the widget to your home screen for instant access without opening the app. • Settings - Toggle brightness value display on buttons - Choose your preferred layout (brightness control on left or right) PERFECT FOR • Quick brightness adjustments without digging through Settings • Toggling Dark Mode and Night Shift with a single tap The Missing Brightness Widget brings the brightness widget you've been missing to your iOS home screen (with some limitations).

In a world where every click leaves a trace, Wonder Incog is your digital invisibility cloak. Built for iOS users, it combines military-grade encryption, biometric security, and identity obfuscation to keep your data truly yours — read-once, leave-no-trace. Privacy is not a luxury; it is a right. --- ## Core Features ### Full-Time Memory Encryption — Redefining the Standard of Privacy Say goodbye to the superficial protection of simply "clearing cache" in traditional browsers. Wonder Incog features a real-time dynamic memory encryption engine, where all web rendering data, cookies, and loaded resources operate within protected volatile memory, physically isolated from disk writing. The moment you swipe to exit the application, the system triggers a triple-pass memory overwrite and purge mechanism, automatically shredding all temporary remnants. This is not merely a browsing session — it is a digital stealth operation that leaves no physical footprint behind. ### Biometric Access Control — Your Personal Data Fortress Everyone has a "digital restricted zone" on their phone that they prefer to keep hidden. Wonder Incog creates a dedicated private storage space fortified with AES-256 encryption. Whether it is cherished bookmarks, or downloaded personal files, everything remains securely locked away. Only through Face ID or Touch ID biometric verification can you unlock this gate. Even when your phone is unlocked or temporarily borrowed by others, your sensitive data remains impregnable and invisible to prying eyes. ### Advanced Anti-Tracking — Erasing Your Digital Fingerprint Third-party trackers and advertisers are constantly mapping your "digital portrait" through thousands of parameters. Wonder Incog integrates an intelligent anti-fingerprinting obfuscation engine that not only actively blocks known ad trackers and malicious analytics scripts but also randomizes dozens of device attributes — including screen resolution, system fonts, and plugin lists. This dynamic obfuscation technique makes each website perceive a "brand-new device," effectively severing cross-site tracking chains and allowing you to navigate the Internet as an unidentifiable, untraceable presence. ### Randomized Identity Generation — Instant Digital Personas When faced with tedious registration forms and potential data leakage risks, Wonder Incog's built-in identity masking system instantly generates a logically coherent virtual identity — complete with a fictitious name, a properly formatted phone number, a valid address and postal code, and even a virtual date of birth. With a single tap, all fields are auto-filled. You can seamlessly pass website verifications while completely disconnecting your real personal information from online services, making data exposure virtually impossible. ### Disposable Temporary Email — A Shield Against Spam When signing up for non-essential services, Wonder Incog's integrated temporary email gateway generates a disposable alias for each use. All verification emails are securely relayed and previewed in-app, and the address is automatically destroyed when no longer needed — keeping your real inbox free from spam and phishing. --- ## Subscription Service When you subscribe to the "VIP Subscription" service, you will enjoy the following benefits: 1. Unrestricted access to all features. 2. AI content recommendations based on usage habits. Payment for subscriptions is straightforward—the user's iTunes account is credited immediately after confirmation of purchase and payment. Please note that the Apple iTunes account will be automatically debited 24 hours prior to expiration. Upon successful deduction, the subscription term will be extended by one subscription cycle.
