There’s a new f.lux for Mac today. Here’s what’s new:
- Dim on disable It’s always been painful to disable f.lux for a color check or late-night design work, so we’ve provided a new option that dims your screen (a lot) when you disable. Check out the “Options” menu for this feature.
- Backwards alarm clock For years we’ve wanted an alarm clock that answers the question, “How much sleep will I get if I go to bed now?” So we made a little version of it for f.lux.
- Better transitions If you woke up your laptop late in the day, f.lux used to do a very slow transition (as if you were “used to” the orange color). Now it transitions quickly to daylight instead. Also, we’ve tuned up behavior at night and in the morning for “bedtime” mode: the night-time and early morning transitions are longer now.
- Expanded daytime settings For users who prefer very warm settings during the day, we’ve made an option that lets the sliders go all the way to 1900K, all the time. We prefer accurate color during the day, but quite a few people have asked for extra control like this. You can find this feature in the Options menu.
- Less CPU We made improvements to the profile writer for dual-GPU macs. So this new version should have less impact on those systems especially.
- Melanopic lux analysis A new screen analyzer in the About box. Visible easter egg?
Quit old versions before running

There’s an update for Yosemite today.
March 12, 2014
We’re happy to announce a new update to f.lux for Mac today.
This new version has been in progress for a long time. We’re sort of nervous and excited about it, because we tried so many things before we figured it out.
f.lux now works with your actual schedule
- f.lux adjusts to your actual day, not just sunrise and sunset.
- It looks nice, showing you a visualization of your day.
- There are tons of new effects and adjustments.
Your schedule
The new version of f.lux makes a schedule just for you, so you can use a screen that knows when you sleep, as well as when the sun’s up. We found a way to combine your day with sunrise and sunset. Here’s how it looks:
f.lux now shows you when the sun’s up and helps you wind down for sleep.
With the new f.lux, your screen warms up to make things look better at sunset. But then later, around the time you would start feeling sleepy, we do a little more, helping you get to bed on time. We’ve even tried to time this second phase with your body’s natural release of melatonin. You may find you want a more moderate effect at sunset now, because the bedtime setting can be more intense.
It’s really easy to set up, and it looks pretty good too.
Flux For Mac El Capitan 10.11
What about the sun?
Usually, we try to make things visual and avoid using tons of numbers. But one number stood out so much that we had to put it up front.
How many hours of sunlight could you see with your current schedule?
A healthy circadian rhythm depends on seeing bright light while you’re awake, not just avoiding bright light before bed. Especially if you’re a night owl, this number is a super-interesting way to think about your day, and we hope it’s useful to you too.
Getting started
To have all this new stuff, all you do is tell f.lux when you wake up:
We suggest some default colors for people in different situations. (For instance, you can now use f.lux if you work the night shift, if you wake up at 3AM, or if you live in Oslo.)
If you need to do color-sensitive work, now you can run at full brightness until just before bed, and then f.lux will wind you down just in time to sleep.
There’s even a way to sleep in on weekends.
Setting up your day
Flux For Mac El Capitan 10 11
As the day progresses, f.lux will move between its three light settings automatically. But because color perception depends on where you are, it’s kind of hard to predict how you’ll see colors at 11PM while sitting in your office at 1PM. We made this new interface so you can come back a few times (for a day or two) to set f.lux the way you like.
Improvements, Movies and Darkroom
- There’s a Movie Mode to watch movies while preserving shadow detail, skintones, and sky colors. It lasts 2½ hours, longer than most feature films.
- There’s a way to disable f.lux until sunrise.
- There’s even a super-red mode we call Darkroom.
- We’ve reworked all animations to make them smoother and cause less impact on your Mac.
- Also added a way to disable f.lux by app. (The “working late” preset works ok for almost everyone, but this is some extra color-accuracy insurance.)
