You are getting veerrryyyy sleeepppyyy.
This time of year gets my sleep schedule all out of whack. Winter is dragging on, New Year's Resolutions are becoming a well-intentioned memory as I stuff my face with a third (fifth) slice of pizza, and I am staying up later and later as the days slowly get longer and longer. By the time daylight savings starts in March (check your calendars!) I am craving my third (fifth) cup of coffee of the day and daydreaming (and regular dreaming) of afternoon naps. In order to get my sleep affairs in order, I rely on a few different apps to help me fall asleep, stay asleep and get the best sleep I can sleep.
Bluelight Filter
Now I am here to tell you something you probably already know: looking at your phone or tablet before bed is not a good idea. The blue light from the screens messes with your eyes and makes your body release less melatonin. Science! But really, no matter how much science you throw at me I am not going to give up my nightly Instagram scrolling. If I hear that notification buzz, I won’t be able to sleep until I see who liked my latest photo.
This app puts a layer of yellow over your screen, making it happier for your eyeballs and makes it easier for your brain to turn off after taking in that last notification. On iPhones there is a built-in setting to invert colours that has a similar effect.
