This guide will help you set up the Night Light feature on your Windows 11 computer. Night Light makes your screen show warmer colors at night, which are easier on your eyes and can help you sleep better.

Why Use Night Light?

Your computer screen gives off blue light, the same kind of light you see during the daytime. Too much blue light at night can make it harder to fall asleep. Turning on Night Light changes the screen colors to warmer tones, which feels more comfortable for your eyes in the dark.

What is Scheduled Night Light?

You can set Night Light to turn on and off automatically each day. You have two options:

• Sunset to sunrise – Night Light turns on when it gets dark outside and turns off when the sun rises. (You need to have Location services turned on for this.)
• Set hours – You pick the exact times you want Night Light to turn on and off.

How to Turn On or Off Scheduled Night Light

1. Open Settings: Press the Windows key + I on your keyboard to open the Settings app.
2. Go to Display Settings: In the left menu, click System, then click Display on the right.

1. Find Night Light: Scroll down to the Brightness & color section and click on Night light.
2. Turn On Scheduled Night Light:
   • Turn on the switch for Schedule night light.
   • Choose either Sunset to sunrise or Set hours.
   • If you pick Sunset to sunrise, make sure your Location is turned on under Settings > Privacy & security > Location.
   • If you pick Set hours, pick the times you want Night Light to turn on and off each day.
     

1. Turn Off Scheduled Night Light:
   
   If you want to stop Night Light from turning on automatically, just switch off Schedule night light.

You can now close the Settings app.

Quick Tips
