An case that offers serious iPhone or iPad protection: the NewerTech NuGuard KX Case for iPhone 6s, 6s Plus.

Having had some sleep issues in the past year, I’m keen on anything that might help.

The idea with Night Shift is that the human brain responds to blue light as daylight, which can interefere with normal sleep patterns. By making the screen much less blue (that is, yellow), the desire to sleep is not impaired.

The bad news for me: I often work late, so the phone is not at all the issue; the computer screen is the issue, and it has to be color accurate for my photography work. So it doesn’t really help me, but many people have phones permanently embedded in their palms, so there.

Setting up: go to Settings and select Display & Brightness.

iOS: Settings => Display & Brightness

Select Night Shift settings which then offers choices for scheduling or not, and more/less warm. There is an option that enables Night Shift from “Sunset to Sunrise” based on your location as well. phto
