What is a blue light filter? Also known as night mode, this handy function is available on many Android smartphones. It allows you to apply a filter to the screen, minimizing eye strain and reducing the blue light emitted by your smartphone screen.
Seeing the adverse effects anyone can obtain from too much screen exposure, smartphone manufacturers made sure to embed a pertinent feature that would inhibit the amount of screen radiation. And the recently rolled out Samsung Galaxy S20 smartphone also has this feature.
Following are the steps to activate Blue Light Filter
1. Launch the Settings app from the Home screen.
If the Settings app isn’t shown on the main screen, then you will need to pull up the Apps viewer and find it among other lined up icons or app shortcuts.
