Users may choose to have screen temperature automatically match their lighting based my geographic location, or based on manually set time-frames. Users may also customize day and night color temperatures, adjust the speed of transitions, and more.

Redshift is best used on X11 systems as it is unmaintained and does not support Wayland.

For Wayland support you may consider [[Gammastep]], a modern fork of Redshift. Alternatively there is also [[wlsunset]], which is a lightweight modern alternative.

The global options can be found under [https://search.nixos.org/options?query=services.redshift services.redshift].

~~==== Usage ====~~

~~<syntaxhighlight lang="shell"># If services.redshift.enable is true, the systemd unit redshift.service is provided.~~

~~# It can either be started by the user level service manager like this:~~

~~systemctl --user start redshift~~

~~# Or permanantly enabled by creating the empty file~~

~~~/.config/systemd/user/default.target.wants/redshift.service~~

~~# After starting the service, make sure to check its status in the service manager:~~

~~systemctl --user status redshift</syntaxhighlight>~~
