My homework is on my computer. My hobbies involve my computer. I relax by watching YouTube. I am literally staring at a screen almost 10 hours+ a day.
…
Probably not the best life for a teenager.
Nevertheless, eye strain is a problem for me, and so is sleeping.
I've have always heard about flux, but I never really tried it out because I was worried about the concept affecting my perception of color. 2 months ago however, I installed it on all my devices and has since never looked back.
How does Flux work?
Flux attempts to reduce eye strain and help sleep by overlaying a orange tint over your screen in attempt to block out blue light. According to the people over at Flux, blue light greatly reduces the chemical your brain produces that tells yourself to sleep and thus many people have problem sleeping at night.
The orange tint that Flux overcasts over one's screen is meant to match with one's lights at night. To my eyes, it doesn't look unnatural when reading text. It feels as if one is just looking at a book at night.
The orange overlay reduces eye strain for me. I don't really know the reason behind this, but I can feel the difference and that is awesome.
I won't go into the technical details of how Flux helps one's eyes and sleep as their website already does a fantastic job at that.
Problems.
My concerns about color were true in some things however, photos looked colors looked slightly off every night, and so did video. It was not too off so that did not annoy me as much as I thought it would, in fact after a week I was completely fine with the color change. I even accidentally edited photos in LightRoom for about 1 and a half hour without realizing Flux was on (oops). With this in mind, I now prefer to edit photos and videos (only for color) in the day. Flux does have an option to disable for an hour if one is working on such projects, but I personally can't stand the color shift from the warm to the cool. Unlike the shift from cool to warm, the shift from warm to cool feels jarring.
I did not get a performance hit in games, but some people report otherwise (and also to be fair the games I play do not tax my computer too much).
Availability
Flux is available on Windows, OSX, Linux, and iOS. An official Android app isn't available yet (it's coming soon!), but you can get many other options like Twilight which work just as well.
Comparing the flux version on Mac to Windows is like comparing ice cream to whipped cream. The mac version has a lot more features, and looks nicer too. To name a few things, there is a bedtime mode on the mac version which changes the color temperature to an even warmer color tone to encourage one to sleep. Location can be automatically detected, there are pre-sets, and flux can be disabled depending on what app is running. Oh did I mention it looked cleaner too? (I did? Okay.)
I wished that the windows version had the same features as the mac version. Nevertheless the windows version still gets the job done.
I haven't got a chance to play with the Linux version or the iOS version. It's important to note that the iOS version only works on jail broken iOS devices (understandable). Also there is no Windows Phone version too.
The Android Version (Twilight)
Twilight for Android works well but it has it's flaws. The color temperature range is different compared to Flux on the PC though thus its hard for me to get it to match up with my PC. However, it does add a screen darken feature which can bring your brightness lower than usual. This feature works OK, the colors shift oddly in order to have this happen and it looks weird. It's still nice for bedtime reading when 0% brightness is still too bright.
There is also another issue with Twilight, when it is enabled you can't do high-level activities. For example: You can't manually install a APK or connect to a VPN when the overlay is enabled. This is understandable as Twilight is transferring touches from the overlay to the actual android system and thus acting like a "buffer". Plus, you can easily disable/enable Twilight through the notification toggle.
However, it did give a performance hit to my old Sony Tablet S. The poor Tegra 2 in that tablet has a terrible enough time trying to deliver smooth 30fps scrolling, and enabling flux (in this case Twilight, more info bellow) on it brings down the animations smoothness by around two times.
To sum it up:
Flux is great if you are a nighttime owl who spends the whole day on the computer for it reduces eyestrain and helps you sleep better. While I personally cannot attest to sleeping better, I can definitely say that it has helped my eyestrain a lot.
I apologize for how late it took me to write this, as I have been busy with my mid-term finals. I only have 1 exam left!

List of Fun Apps for Kids in Android Tablets or Phones
Although I don’t agree with parents that allow their children to be too absorbed with their Android tablets, I think that we should allow the kids to have fun with tablets once in a while. The existence of fun apps for kids is getting more and more important because games that are not suitable for their ages are growing in numbers every day. The fun apps or games for kids would be a far reasonable option compared to the games made for adults.
In contrast to what some people think, I think Android tablets can be used to help you develop coordination and learning in your kids. Of course, if you want to keep them quiet for some time you can give the tablet too, but don’t do this too often. Anyway, here is the list of fun apps for kids in Android tablets or phone. In near future I also plan to post about the fun and safe games for kids too.
Fun Apps for Kids – the cat in the hat
OceanHouse Media Inc. has this great app called The Cat in The Hat – Dr. Seuss. If you have young kids that are still in the process of learning to read, this would be a perfect choice. This interactive eBook has three features, such as “Read by myself”, which you can use to read for your kids. Other features are “Read to me” and “Auto Play”. The pronunciation is clear and loud, and when you touch the words, it will be spoken. The $3.99 price is worth it, I presume.
The second educational and fun app for kids in Android is the Google Sky Map. This free app allows your children to explore the magnificent sky and learn about planets, stars and constellations. If you can’t afford a telescope, this would be a good choice to nurture your children’s curiosity toward science.
Those who own an iPhone won’t be surprised with Talking Tom Cat. This popular app has come to Android for a price of $0.99. I like this app because it can distract your children for a while, entertaining them with a silly interactive play. You can stroke or pet or poked the cat and it will respond. It also replicates what you say in a cat’s voice.
Fun Apps for Kids – kids doodle
If you want to stimulate your children’s creativity, the Kids Doodle might be able to help you. This app allows your kids to paint with their fingertips, creating doodles made of streams of light. The interface is easy to understand and looks pretty tidy too. Moreover, it comes as a free app, so what more can you ask?
If your kids love to take pictures, then the PicSay Photo editor is a great tool that you should have. This photo editor app allows your kids to add various things in the picture they’ve taken. For example, they can add distortions, icons, stickers and speech bubbles. This will keep them busy for a while, and it can stimulate your children to be creative.
Being selective in choosing fun apps for kids in Android tablets or phones is crucial. Sometimes people tend to allow their kids to access apps or games that were not meant to be used by kids their ages, just to keep the kids stay in one place and not messing around. Be wise, and you will have a good time with your kids./AndroidKlip
