What is Auto Brightness?
Auto Brightness is a feature that is becoming increasingly popular on modern devices, such as smartphones and laptops. Auto Brightness allows the device to adjust the screen brightness automatically, based on the ambient light detected in the environment. This can be very useful in conserving battery life, as the device can decrease the brightness when it is not needed, and increase it when more illumination is needed. Unfortunately, it can also be quite annoying, as the brightness may be set too low or too high for the user's needs. Fortunately, it is possible to turn off auto brightness in 2023.
Turning Off Auto Brightness on Smartphones
If you have an Android or iOS device, then the process for turning off auto brightness is relatively straightforward. On Android, all you need to do is open your device's Settings app, and then select the Display option. From there, you should be able to find the Auto Brightness setting, which you can toggle off. On iOS, you will need to open the Settings app, select the Display & Brightness option, and then toggle the Auto-Brightness setting off.
Turning Off Auto Brightness on Windows and Mac
If you are using Windows or Mac, then you have a few more options for turning off Auto Brightness. On Windows, you can open the Display Settings app, and then select the Display option. From there, you can find the Auto Brightness setting, which you can toggle off. On a Mac, you can open the System Preferences app, select the Displays option, and then click the Display tab. Then, you can toggle the Automatically adjust brightness option off.
Turning Off Auto Brightness on Linux
If you are using Linux, then you can use the xbacklight command to turn off Auto Brightness. To do so, open a terminal window and enter the following command: xbacklight -set 0. This will set the screen brightness to 0, which will effectively turn off Auto Brightness. Of course, you can also use the xbacklight command to adjust the screen brightness manually, by typing xbacklight -set
Adjusting Brightness Manually
If you prefer to adjust the brightness of your display manually, then you can do so on most modern devices. On a smartphone, you can find the brightness setting in the Display options of the Settings app. On Windows and Mac, you can adjust the brightness from the Display Settings app or the System Preferences app, respectively. On Linux, you can adjust the brightness manually by using the xbacklight command.
Conclusion
