Begin October our team went to the first Belgium Apple Store. To review the new store design and to try out the new Apple Watch and iPhones. What we noticed is that the colors you always see at the Apple Store is white, green (for the trees) and the light brown for the demo tables. And one of the problems is that when a user browse the web on a smaller screen, you see so much white light shining on his face. And at night you can clearly see the difference when you walk on the street. That’s where Turn Off the Lights will solve this issue. That’s why black is the default color to dims the web page on any device.
We happy to announce that Turn Off the Lights is available on the Apple App Store. It’s a dark mobile web browser, with the white lamp button right of the address bar. It has the same concept as in the desktop browser such as Google Chrome and Safari. This to focus the HTML5 video player and to dark the rest on the web page.

Video Layer
You as user can change the color of the layer in the preference window to blue, green, red, orange, pink, yellow etc. And there is an option to show a video when you do the lights off. It’s sound crazy, but you can watch a full movie and type together your text document.
