Solve The Biggest Problems on your iPhone and iPad

Posted on November 4, 2015March 27, 2021 by Stefan Van Damme

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. You can get free Turn Off the Lights for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch today in the Apple App Store.
