    The blue light filters are hilarious because most devices already support night mode

        The software you’re probably thinking of is f.lux

        Sounds impossible. The way they turn the screen red is by reducing the blue light transmitted through the LCD panel. You cant turn the screen red and keep the blue light at the same time.

        Unless its an oled screen. Then it is a stupid implementation. You could just reduce the blue light then.
