Default Google is preparing to integrate Extra Dim into Androids brightness slider
  • Google is working on removing the Extra Dim feature that makes the screen dimmer than what even the lowest level of the brightness slider allows.
  • Instead, the feature will now be built into the brightness slider, so you can just slide the bar left to dim the screen further than before.
  • The new feature will be controlled by a toggle called “even dimmer.”
If you like using your phone in bed at night, then youre probably accustomed to turning on Androids “extra dim” feature to dim the screen beyond what the regular brightness bar allows for. However, if you forget to turn off extra dim in the morning, then youll find yourself looking at a phone screen thats much dimmer than it should be. Fortunately, Google has a solution to this problem, and it could arrive in the first quarterly platform release of Android 15.

Back in April, we spotted work on a feature called “even dimmer” that allows the device to “go dimmer than usual,” similar to “extra dim.” Unlike “extra dim,” which you have to toggle on or off as you use it, “even dimmer” is a feature that can stay on, and only has an effect at low brightness settings. When the setting is active, the lowest values of the brightness slider cause the screen to become even dimmer than usual, as Android applies a transformation that reduces the intensity of bright colors.
