Device: Z Fold 7 (should work on other devices too) Settings:

Extra Dim: 90%

Eye Comfort: Enhanced comfort turned on

Color Correction: Greyscale

I toggle these settings based on the activities I do on my phone. Most of the time, all three are turned on. Whenever color accuracy and brightness are needed—such as for watching videos, browsing, or shopping—I turn them off.

I’m finally able to function like a normal human being after a long time, thanks to minimal eye strain and almost nonexistent migraines. Previously, I couldn’t even bear looking at my phone for more than a few minutes.

Can you test iphones too?

DJTaurus I've had this setup on my iPhone 16 for a few months and it changed it from painful to ok for me:
Brightness is permanently set to 100%. I then use the accessibility shortcut (triple-click power button) to toggle 'Reduce White Point' at 100%, to change the effective brightness.

Greyscale colour filter set to 50% (I can toggle this using the control panel but rarely do). Full grayscale isn't as good for eyestrain for me, and makes the phone more difficult to use.
