Giveaway of the day — Iris Mini Pro 0.3.7.3 (Win & Mac)
Iris Mini Pro 0.3.7.3 (Win & Mac) war am 14. Mai 2017! als Giveaway verfügbar!
Iris Mini ist eine Augenschutz-Software, welche die Farbtemperatur auf eurem Bildschirm sowie seine Helligkeit reduziert ohne die Flimmerrate zu erhöhen.
Nachts unterdrückt blaues Licht die Produktion von Melatonin, dem Schlafhormon. Abhängig von eurer Location passt Iris die Bildschirmfarbe an und fügt etwas mehr rot oder gelb hinzu - ähnlich wie f.lux, Night Shift und weitere Blaulicht-Blockiertools.
Eine andere coole Funktion ist die Anpassung der Helligkeit. Wenn der Bildschirm die ganze Zeit flimmert, registriert unser Auge das kaum. Da es nicht möglich ist, einen flimmerfreien Bildschirm herzustellen, lösen wir dieses Problem auf eine andere Weise. Die meisten Bildschirmhersteller kontrollieren die Helligkeit, indem sie die Flimmerrate reduzieren (die sogenannte Pulsweitenmodulation). Je niedriger diese Frequenz, desto mehr leiden unsere Augen darunter! Darauf folgen Kopfschmerzen, Augenprobleme, Schlafstörungen usw. Die Lösung lautet Iris Mini, denn dieses Tool ändert die Helligkeit ohne die Flimmerrate zu reduzieren.
GOTD und ich hoffen, dass ihr dieses wunderbare kleine Tool nützlich findet!
Daniel Georgiev, der Iris-Gründer.

Please add a comment explaining the reason behind your vote.
Following on from tk's post, I'm obviously not alone in being a bit, well, baffled by the developer's claim to have come up with a software control of a hardware functionality.
I've used the donationware f.lux ever since US ophthalmology researchers Lorna and Mike Herf released it several years ago:
https://justgetflux.com/
On which basis then, many thanks to today's developer Daniel Georgiev and GOTD for bringing to the attention of many the issue of eye-strain and, crucially, the effect of different wavelengths of light on mood and sleep patterns.
PS: special kudos to Daniel for generously acknowledging f:lux in his product description, something which the Almighty Apple has -- disgracefully -- flatly refused to do. But then, a mere husband-and-wife team like the Herfs have no chance when the fruity monolith claims its much-touted 'NightShift' is all its own work. . .
Not meaning to carry wholesale judgement on the product, but when I installed it, it immediately changed my mostly white screen into a darkish orange. The first thing you try to do, then, is find a menu, a command, something, to undo the unwanted change, before you even begin to examine the program. Alas, there's none available.
I mean : no obvious command, such as "undo", "normal", "default settings", "adjust colour", "bring back an honest-to-God white screen, you moron" -- you get my drift. Only some cryptic things like "automatic". I don't remember what I did to kick out that stupid orange glow. Probably exited the program. Then I think my screen reverted back to normal -- however it might have become bluer than before, I don't know. I'm sure there was no message such as "Iris restored your previous settings" -- an obvious requirement.
A bit later, I tried to determine whether the program was installed or portable. It turns out it "installs" itself... no questions asked... in the AppData folder ! And not even in my own AppData : I follow the recommended security practice of using a non-administrative Windows account all the time, but software installing themselves obviously ask for administrator privileges. So this program stupidly thought my user account was the administrative account, which I almost never use.
Developers of such programs needs to understand one thing : they should live by the doctors' most sacred obligation : above all, do no harm. Maybe your software is the best thing since sliced bread, and maybe it will change people's lives. Maybe. However, you need to be humble and take care not to disrupt your users' workflow and habits. Realise people out there have spent long hours calibrating their screens to an acceptable setting. Don't begin by breaking everything just to get noticed. If, by accident, you do, give people an easy way out.
Generally, be discreet. I'm sorry to break the news to you, but even if your screen-adjusting program is absolutely terrific, it will be used 1 per thousand of the time. So your first duty is to get the hell out of the way. And provide obvious, user-friendly commands for the rare instance when your product will be needed.
One strong point of this program is its detailed online user manual. You can see, there, that the developer sincerely thinks that at 3 pm your whites should be a dull pink, and that by 10 pm all you should be permitted, instead of white, is that disgusting brownish orange I was talking about. I suppose this is adjustable by the user, but if the first thing a program does is stupid choices you need to manually correct, that's moderately encouraging. Hint : adjusting screen colour temperature is about nuance. Slight changes. Almost imperceptible settings. It's not about pouring a pot of paint over the screen.
I uninstalled Iris, because it gave me such a bad start that I really don't have the motivation to investigate whether something better lurks deep inside.
That's what I like to see: software so cheap that if you miss the free window you can still afford to buy it!
Hello,
Daniel here. The creator of Iris.
I read the comments. Thanks for the feedback. Some things I would like to clarify.
Like Windows 10 Night Light, Iris mini can control the blue light. It works on Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10 before creators update. So if you don't have Creators update you can use Iris mini Pro.
Like f.lux Iris mini can control the blue light. In addition to this is reduces the brightness without PWM which is important for the eyes.
A little bit of explanation how it helps to reduce flicker here
https://iristech.co/how-iris-reduces-pwm-flicker-medium/
Look at the hidden features
https://iristech.co/iris-mini-hidden-features/
You can invert colors and control Iris mini per monitor. You can also use schedule with hours instead of location. You can choose Manual, Automatic or Mixed mode for Color Temperature and Brightness. Just some nice things bundled for more. This things are important and are missing in f.lux.
I personally find the new f.lux 4 beta a little bit to complicated. I wrote review of it here
https://iristech.co/f-lux-4-beta-review-windows/
The goal of Iris mini is to be small and usefull. I just wanted to make a present for all awesome users of GOTD. :)
Thank You Daniel Georgiev and GOTD
Downloaded and installed without the normal troubles.
Installed on a Windows 10 Pro Creator Update PC 64bit. - No problems.
As another commenter said in the latest build of Windows 10 we have this sort of implemented already, but it requires location services to be active and only adjusts your display when it detects sunset or sunrise. With this program I can now remove the blue light from my display all the time or any time I want.
Useful software for once
thx again. Sharing is caring.
Richard Sebire,
Windows 10 "Night Light" can have it's activity hours changed independent of location services being activated. I use O & O Shutup 10 (FREE) to stop all of Windows 10 spying activities.

Anfangs war ich ein wenig irritiert von der sehr leicht in einem (gaaaanz) blassen rosa anmutende Darstellung. Schon nach kurzer Zeit habe ich mich bereits daran gewöhnt und es war mir gar nicht mehr aufgefallen.
Aber das wichtigste: Es hat tatsächlich sehr angenehm und zeitigt einen positiven Effekt in Bezug auf die Ermüdung der Augen. Arbeiten am Bildschirm strengt meine Augen wenige an.

Auf der www-Seite steht, das Programm wäre portabel - was ist denn an dieser Software portabel ?
Zum einen wird sie im lokalen Benutzerverzeichnis installiert und nicht im "Program Files (x86)" Verzeichnis, wo sie als 32-Bit Programm eigentlich hingehört (soll die Software denn für jeden PC-Benutzer erneut installiert werden ?) - zum anderen benötigt die Pro-Version die Registry-Einträge unter
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\IrisTech\IrisMini
