How to do it

1. 01

   Open Settings > Display & Brightness > Night Shift.

2. 02

   Turn Scheduled on and choose Sunset to Sunrise, or set your own hours.

3. 03

   Drag the color temperature slider. Warmer is more amber. Less warm still looks like the normal screen.

Night Shift is not a sleep treatment. It only changes the screen. True Tone, on the Display screen above it, is a different feature and can stay on at the same time.
