      I've been using f.lux on Windows for some time now. It's great. I recently got a bunch of Philips Hue bulbs and it's awesome seeing the color temperature change as the day goes on. However, my biggest issue is that f.lux overrides any brightness setting I apply via the Hue app or Alexa. It would be great if there was an option for smart lighting to only affect color temp, so that brightness could still be controlled by the user. Sometimes I want some rooms to be dim, but that seems impossible with f.lux since it sets the brightness to max.

          @Architekt I support this idea. And it seems like a relatively simple feature to add, is it not? PLEASE let us use the smart bulb feature with only color temperature changes, and no control over brightness. I think the smart bulb feature would be amazing with that ability. And I think there are many more of us who would enjoy this feature, too:
