f.lux 可以连接到您现有的智能家居(existing smart home lightin)照明并更改它们以匹配您笔记本电脑屏幕的颜色。目前，该应用程序可以与飞利浦 Hue(Philips Hue)和ColorKinetics设备通信，或者您可以在 f.lux 更改时发布到自定义URL 。
此外，还有多种颜色效果可供选择(color effects available)。您还可以从可用的下拉菜单中手动选择一种颜色。还有一个工具可以禁用应用程序一段时间或直到日出。此外，您也可以为全屏应用程序禁用它。
f.lux 是一个很棒的应用程序，也非常有用。您需要做的就是调整一次，然后离开它。它将继续在后台工作。该应用程序的商店描述为 -
