NIGHT MODE?
The recent fixes have resolved most (albeit minor) issues from the first version, and the app is now working excellently – great job! For me, this app is a very useful addition to the WiiM ecosystem – I use it frequently, especially during late night listening sessions.
And here comes a suggestion for a relatively easy-to-implement but important ergonomic improvement – adding a Night Mode to the Display Modes (currently: Color and Blur), which would introduce the following changes:
a) black background,
b) reduced screen brightness (ideally: user-selectable brightness),
c) ideally: the ability to choose the screen’s tint/color (at a minimum: the color of menu elements – I would choose red), AND / OR: an option to completely hide the album cover.
This would allow users to configure the display so that the TV screen remains visible at night, but as dim as possible, with minimal brightness fluctuations. I’ve worked around this by creating a special display profile on my TV (very low brightness and contrast, red color shift), but it’s not an ideal solution – it works fine with dark album covers, but with brighter ones, the TV lights up significantly, which becomes distracting at night.
If WiiM could find the time to implement such changes in one of the upcoming versions, it would be invaluable to me.
