A softer light for the middle of the night. When your iPhone flashlight is more than you need, Night Light turns your screen into a calm, gentle light. Open the app and your saved color and brightness are ready. No account, setup, or clutter. MAKE IT YOURS Choose warm amber, warm white, deep red, candle, green, or moonlight. Pick any custom color and adjust the screen brightness from 1% to 50%. Night Light remembers your favorite settings for next time. Deep red and warm amber are gentle choices for checking on a sleeping child or finding your way without waking anyone. OPEN IT YOUR WAY Add the circular widget to your Lock Screen or Home Screen to open your saved light with one tap. On iOS 18 and later, you can also add Night Light to Control Center, a Lock Screen control, or the Action button on supported iPhones. Normal iPhone authentication may still be required. OPTIONAL REAR LIGHT Need a little more? One tap turns on the rear flashlight at a deliberately low level. It never turns on automatically, and it switches off when Night Light leaves the foreground. SIMPLE BY DESIGN Night Light opens directly into your favorite preset, uses a dark launch screen, and keeps controls minimal and easy to find. FREE AND PRIVATE Night Light is completely free, with no ads, accounts, subscriptions, analytics, or tracking. Your settings remain on your device. Optional tips unlock nothing—the full app is available to everyone.
