I've just downloaded the lux auto brightness app to see if it will work better than the LG G3s stock brightness. Has anyone noticed and change in battery when using this?

I have been using it and haven't noticed any difference in battery life. Then again, I am not trying to set it lower than what I normally use the G3 for, except for in bed with the lights completely out. (-40%)

Yeah if the battery stays the same I'll be happy.. I'm just tired of adjusting the brightness when I go outside... But - 40%!? How do you see?

In a completely dark room, I read black and white manga scans at -40% without any issues. The G3 doesn't seem to go very dim, so you have to over-dim. I don't like a bright screen when it's the only source of light.

Lux is a great app, worth every penny. The auto brightness adjustments, even with default settings, I like better then the stock feature on the G3. Being able to adjust the lighting to various custom levels in different environments is just icing on the cake. I've never noticed any issue with Lux and battery drain. I've used my G3 with it and without it, no difference at all.

on my lockscreen under the clock i get the lux settings (auto,+ - ,stars,turnon/off,refresh). it makes the clock on the lockscreen smaller. i am also using knock on code.

Try to go to Settings, Sound, Notification, Apps, Set notification for apps.. from there disable notifications from Lux.

I have nova launcher prime and I use gestures to bring up Lux, works great.
