Nightlight
Nightlight is a small utility for macOS that adjusts your display's color temperature to reduce blue light exposure, particularly in the evenings. It is designed to ease eye strain during extended computer use and can help promote better sleep by filtering harsh blue light before bedtime. The app typically runs quietly in the menu bar and lets users set custom color temperature levels and scheduling.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find public information about whether Nightlight has a native Apple Silicon build. The app does not appear to maintain a high-profile website or recent release notes we could access. If you rely on this app, we recommend contacting the developer directly to ask whether a native Apple Silicon version is planned. This is important because the Intel-only build will stop working entirely when Apple removes Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028) — you have just over two years to plan. In the meantime, the Intel build continues to run under Rosetta 2 on M-series Macs. If you need an alternative that definitely runs natively on Apple Silicon, built-in options like macOS's native Night Shift (available in System Settings → Displays) offer similar blue-light filtering without requiring a separate app.
