Why are my phone screenshots dim?

[Android Central Question]

Every single time I take a screenshot it's dim. I don't know when this started happening but I do know that there are a few apps that may cause this, such as Twilight and Night Mode. The problem is that I have no night-mode app installed and I never did in the first place. I have an LG Aristo 2 and I don't know if there was perhaps an update that caused this. Any solutions?

Maybe you started using an app which replaces system default auto brighness adjustment mode? These apps often have functionality to darken a screen by adding black partly transparent overlay. Using Velis Auto Brighness for example?

And what may appear to be a bright screen to you, in a fairly dimly lit room, may be a dim screen.

This has been happening to me aswell...

Has anyone found a solution to this? The only correlation I've found is the last android security patch was July 1 and I've looked back and the last time I had a bright screenshot was June 30, nothing but dim since July 1, 2018. Ideas? I have no blue filter on, no blue filter apps, etc.

It may be worth reporting the issue to the device manufacturer.
