On 21 March, Apple released iOS 9.3, a version that, like many of which are released in the spring, introduced many important developments. Among these developments, perhaps the most outstanding or which more has been said is Night Shift, a system that eliminates the red tones of the screen so that, in summary, we can sleep better at night and that is based on the application that f.lux because for some time it was available for iOS (via Cydia), for Mac and Windows.
Night Shift was very well received among them users and that can be the reason that has animated to Apple to take your system to the rest of devices, as has discovered Patently Apple. In the list of devices that have included some such as decorative magnets and dog whistles (seriously!), but this is something relatively normal when names are registered or presents any patents and is to cover all the possibilities.
Night Shift will come to the Mac and Apple Watch
Described as “software to control the screen of computers and mobile”, Apple aims to that Night Shift cover all those devices that have available currently and any other device that could launch in the future. What makes more sense is to be present in OS X, but also arise to take Night Shift to the Apple Watch and even CarPlay. For those who are thinking that it would be dangerous to “help us to sleep” in a car, you have to remember this kind of systems do not cause us drowsiness, if they do not understand our body that has already been done at night. Said of another mode, that the screen of CarPlay change its color not us will cause nothing different to what feel to the view that is makes of night from our car.
The negative part of this story is that, when they include them in Apple devices by default, f.lux will have it even harder since last March and now will only be present in Windows and Android, since long ago that stopped support for the Linux version. If they would have at least mentioned it when they presented Night Shift…
