Redshift modifies the color temperature to reduce eye strain and improve sleep patterns. The application aims to provide a more comfortable viewing experience by dynamically changing the display's color temperature to match the user's surrounding light conditions.

It does this by gradually shifting the color temperature of the display from cooler (bluer) tones during the day to warmer (redder) tones at night.

Users have the flexibility to customize various settings in Redshift. They can specify custom values for day and night color temperatures, adjust the speed of color transitions, and temporarily disable or manually adjust the color temperature.

Redshift is currently unmaintained, however [[Gammastep]] is a modern fork of Redshift that supports Wayland. There is also wlsunset which is a lightweight modern alternative.
