DimWin Brightness

DimWin Brightness is an application most individuals would be tempted to overlook. In the end, its name says it all. It alters the brightness of your desktop and not much else. This is one of those apps you either need, or you don't. As simple as it sounds, there is one particular feature that could be of interest to many, as there are not a lot of screen dimmers to offer this option.

Well, as you'd probably expect, not difficult at all. Why? Well, the whole app is made up of two sliders and a system tray menu option. This means there aren't many ways in which you could mess things up. You simply install it and then, depending on your choice, you allow it to open every time you turn Windows on.

It's simple and it's definitely useful. You can make your screen dimmer by using the Windows 10 levels of brightness, of course using DimWin Brightness as a fast-access interface or you could, alternatively, use the app's more important feature, which is the overlay brightness adjuster.

By far, the most interesting feature this app has to show is the overlay brightness adjuster. Just like the name suggests, this is basically a transparent dark overlay which you can darken or lighten depending on your needs. It's an interesting feature as this can take the brightness level control to a new level.

There are situations in which the normal brightness controls do not work. One such example is when connected through the Miracast protocol. This means that the overlay feature could come in handy as a normal dimmer, allowing you to enjoy your content at the right brightness.

DimWin Brightness is an application worth trying, especially if you wish you had more control over the brightness setting. You will be able to lower the brightness even more and in some special circumstances actually make it function right. Head on to the Download section, get the application and do your eyes a huge favor in the process.
