Umbraa

Made for the hours after dark.

Umbraa lives in your menu bar and takes your Mac's screen well below its built-in minimum brightness, so it stays comfortable in a dark room instead of glaring back at you. It can warm the colors too, or black the screen out completely when you're ready to sleep.

$3.99 on the Mac App Store

Screen Dimming

Go darker than your Mac allows.

Even at its lowest setting, your Mac's backlight is often still too bright in a dark room. Umbraa dims every display well past that limit, smoothly and right away. Drag the slider to see how far it goes.

Color Comfort

Neutral, warm, or red.

Three ways to make the screen easier on your eyes. Neutral keeps the colors true, Warm shifts them amber for late evenings, and Red cuts nearly all the blue and green light. Try each one on the screen.

Sleep Timer

Fades to black while you fall asleep.

Set a timer and Umbraa fades the screen to black when it ends. Fall asleep to a movie and it won't be a bright screen that wakes you at 3 a.m. Start the timer to watch it fade.

Lights out, instantly.

One click blacks out every display right away, with no timer to set. Ideal when you're watching in bed and want the light gone this second. Tap the screen to bring it back.

Native to macOS

A fully native Mac app.

Umbraa is written entirely for macOS and tuned down to the small details, so it feels like part of the system rather than something bolted on. It stays fast, light, and out of your way.
