Lower the brightness of the Navigation Bar (Xperia X)

[Vestt]

Hi all,

I like to use those apps that reduce the brightness of your screen before I go to bed, such as Twilight. However, I have one problem with my Xperia X. 

None of the apps I've tried cover the navigation bar. So no matter how low I set the brightness of those apps, the navigation bar will remain insanely bright. Visualized here: https://i.imgur.com/18M559j.jpg

I've tried about 20 apps but it seems to be a common problem for Xperia X users.

Is there any way I can fix this? Any ideas?

I also posted this on www.reddit.com/r/SonyXperia but none of the ~10 recommended apps and suggestions were helpful. 

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Vestt, welcome to the community.

The native brightness control should lower the navigation bar brightness but when it comes to third party applications, Sony Mobile have no input over their development so I can not comment on them specifically, you'll have to talk to the app developers.
