Description

The little app that helps you sleep. Do you spend all night at your computer; working, writing, reading? Do you find it hard to sleep afterwards? By reducing the amount of blue light emitted by your monitor, Candlelight helps maintain your bodys natural nocturnal rhythm. You see, its all to do with light and chemistry. Your body produces a chemical called melatonin. Melatonin is important because it helps you fall asleep. Normally, you produce more melatonin at night because sunlight suppresses its production during the day. The trouble is, in this electronic world, we are surrounded by a multitude of light sources that mimic sunlight. In particular, modern lightbulbs and computer displays throw out enough blue light to fool our bodies into thinking that its daytime; even if its past twelve midnight. If you use a computer late at night, production of melatonin can be suppressed and you may find your sleep quality suffers. Many people have found that wearing orange tinted glasses after dark improves their sleep. But what if you dont have a pair of orange tinted glasses? Never fear. Candlelight is here to help. Candlelight mimics the orange glasses effect. By careful application of computer magic, the Candlelight app reduces the blue component of your Macs display, leaving only the warm amber glow of candlelight. If youre at your Mac well past the witching hour, switch the room light off, turn Candlelight on, and you may find that using the app leads to a better nights sleep. **Note for customers who cannot get the app to run** When Candlelight launches, its icon should appear on the status bar (at the top right of the screen). Clicking on this icon will reveal the apps menu. Turn Candlelight On is the second option.

Not working

Aztecgoddess* · 11 years ago · v1.3

I purchased this app and downloaded onto my iMac (OS X Yosemite 10.10.4) but it doesn’t work. I double clicked on it and it doesn’t open/start. The “support” is non existent (there are no answers to any kind of technical issues). There is an email at the bottom of the “support” page that I used to email the developer about this problem, but no answer yet. Poor customer service. Upsetting.

Takes the strain off the eyes

I could immediately sense the difference as soon as I turn this app on. So far I have been enjoying this app, but there is a small glitch. When the screen loads back after a screensaver there is no orange tint even though the app is still turned on. It sort of blinds you for a minute before you turn off the app and turn it back on for it to work again. Please look into this. Thanks for a great app otherwise!

Great App need to launch from top Macboob menu bar

RebeccaStarz · 10 years ago · v1.3

This app is great for people with trouble sleeping that need amber light to block out blue light before bed. You can cange and adjust the amount of orange and bright to dark in the settings. I found out you need to launch this from the small Candle Icon at the top of the Macbook screen once it is installed, its weird it will do nothing if you try and run it and click on it from Applications, You need to click the candle and Turn Candlelight On.. :) Enjoy Great app

Glitches out

Maria Pellegrini · 9 years ago · v1.3

I can’t figure out how to file a report or uninstall this app, but every five minutes, it turns itself on. Very annoying.

fantastic

Jzekyll · 9 years ago · v1.3

this is a must for anyone who works at night

Pourquoi pas ?!

Calitel · 13 years ago · v1.2.1

Je ne sais pas si ce logiciel est efficace, mais je dois dire que même si cest surprenant dans un premier temps, cest plutôt agréable ensuite. Par contre, nayez pas trop de lumière dans la pièce ou vous utilisez votre ordinateur. Noubliez-pas non plus dajuster les réglages lumineux pour optimiser la lecture. Sinon, petite suggestion pour lauteur: Nous donner la possibilité de pouvoir mettre et supprimer le mode nuit par un raccourci clavier. Car dans létat actuel, même avec un utilitaire comme Alfred, ce nest pas possible.

Ok mais

cokeiv · 10 years ago · v1.3

Marche plutot bien sauf que sur mon macbook pro elle s’allume TOUTE SEULE sans que je n’ai rien demandé ce qui est très chiant, obligé de rouvrir l’application pour allumer/éteindre à chaque fois et ce même si je supprime l’application de mon finder. L’assisante est injoignable.
