Automatically adjusts the brightness / color of your monitor based on the time of day. I noticed a huge difference at night in reducing eye strain since using it.

It takes a few days for your eyes to adjust to the color changes. After which you don't notice it.

Whoa, this is a huge change. Did you leave your nighttime setting all the way to the 'halogen' (3400K) setting? I'm going to leave it there for a couple days (or maybe just tonight) and see how I like it, I think I'm going to have to move it up a bit though.

Edit: Yeah, I'll try it for a bit more like this, but to my partially-colourblind self it's washing out blues pretty hard at 3400K.

I bumped it a tad bit brighter and have been moving it back every once in a while until my eyes fully adjust.

Oh god, after having this program running for the last few hours I just turned it off for a few seconds to see what the difference would be... my eyes instantly started to hurt. It's going to take me a few days to get used to this, but it seems to be totally worth it. It also doesn't change the colour on any video that's running (at least with VLC), which is another thing that I was kind of worried about - so pretty awesome.
