Adjust the iPod touch screen brightness and color
On iPod touch, dim the screen to extend battery life, and use Night Shift to shift the colors in your display to the warmer end of the spectrum at night and make viewing the screen easier on your eyes.
Adjust the screen brightness manually
To make your iPod touch screen dimmer or brighter, do one of the following:
-
Open Control Center, then drag

> Display & Brightness, then drag the slider.
Schedule Night Shift to turn off and on automatically
Use Night Shift to shift the colors in your display to the warmer end of the spectrum at night and make viewing the screen easier on your eyes.
Go to Settings
> Display & Brightness > Night Shift.Turn on Scheduled.
To adjust the color balance for Night Shift, drag the slider below Color Temperature toward the warmer or cooler end of the spectrum.
Tap From, then select either Sunset to Sunrise or Custom Schedule.
If you choose Custom Schedule, tap the options to schedule the times you want Night Shift to turn on and off.
If you select Sunset to Sunrise, iPod touch uses the data from your clock and geolocation to determine when it’s nighttime for you.
