Blue Light Filter and Its Uses
Filtering Blue light is imperative to help reduce digital eye strain and thereby prevents your eyes from feeling so tired. Prolonged exposure to blue light can result in the suppression of melatonin production in the body. When this happens, you will have a hard time getting a good sleep.
In response to this concern, smartphone manufacturers commit to roll out new devices with blue light integration. So, all users have to do is to activate this feature on their respective devices in order to keep their eyes protected from such harmful blue rays emission.
With the Blue light filter enabled, the amount of blue light displayed on the screen of the device will be reduced.
If you’re wondering how to access and manage this feature on the Galaxy Tab S6, I’ve mapped out these subsequent directions.

Below are the actual steps of modifying the Galaxy Tab S6 display settings to make its blue light filter feature activate by itself when the specified time arrives.

Here, you can find the switches to activate the feature right away or on schedule.To enable the feature right away, toggle to turn on the switch next to turn on now.
The screen color and appearance will then change as the blue light is already filtered.
To activate the blue light filter on schedule, turn off the switch next to turn on now and then, enable the switch next to turn on as scheduled.
You may choose to enable the feature from sunset to sunrise, or set a custom schedule.
To go for the latter, tap to select Custom schedule then change the start time and end time values.
The start time is the time when the blue light filter starts to activate and then end time is the time it deactivates or turn off by itself.

Alternative Solutions to Harmful Blue Light Emissions
Aside from the built-in blue light settings, Android devices like the Tab S6 also have other anti-blue light features that can be used when needed. One of these is the so-called dark mode or night mode feature.
Making use of these features is highly recommended especially in the evening to evade from any potential health risks from tab and smartphone radiation.
Third-party made screen accessories like screen protectors can also be used as alternative resources as they usually integrate a medically rated blue light filter. Using such screen protectors can therefore block blue light emissions while retaining the same crystal-clear screen quality and color of your device’s display.
