ScreenShade: an old (free) utility that will make brighter (or dimmer) your Mac
Most of the time, I love a dim-lit working environment (I guess it’s not only me…).
My iMac 24″ display sports a good estate when it comes to screen size but it’s damn too bright, especially when you’re using it for hours and hours writing text and/or coding.
The latest Mavericks update urged my to find a substitute for the now-defunct utility Shades (that is: no more supported by 10.9.x).
Meet ScreenShade which, incidentally, looks like it’s some sort of abandonware: its home website is no longer available…
You can still find it on Softonic library, download it and get up and (dim) running very fast!
ScreenShade resides in the upper-right bar, can be configured for Startup-Launch and, quite interesting, can be set up for external displays too.
Simple, free, useful: recommended!
