PRO+

Today, you set everything by hand. Something is coming that won't need you to.

A future layer that learns how you actually use your screen, and starts making small decisions for you.

Every setting in the app today works the same way: you decide the exact value, and it stays there until you change it. That is not going away. If you like being the one in control, that stays exactly how it works.

What is coming is a second way to run any setting. Instead of picking a fixed number yourself, you hand that one setting over and it starts paying attention. It learns when you actually reach for more brightness, when a spike happens that you would rather it quietly correct, and what a normal day of using your screen looks like for you. Over time, it adjusts on its own without a new screen to configure or new options to learn.

This is not a separate app, and it will not need a separate download. It is a mode any setting can be switched into, right from the same place you already control it.

how it works today

You set the exact value. It stays there until you change it. Full control, nothing automatic.

what's coming

Hand a setting over, and it watches, learns, and adjusts on its own from there.

Nothing about how the app works today changes in the meantime.

Permissions

Phosphor is a lightweight screen utility suite that runs locally on your Mac, uses minimal system resources, and needs these permissions to provide its features. Your data stays on your Mac and is never collected, uploaded, or shared. Phosphor is designed with privacy at its core.

Screen Recording

Allows Phosphor to access the screen information it needs for its display features. Nothing is recorded, stored, or transmitted, and Phosphor does not access your audio.

Accessibility

Allows Phosphor to work with macOS and your displays using the system access required for its features. This access is processed locally and is never used to collect or share your personal data.

Input Monitoring

Allows Phosphor to respond to the system input it needs for its features. Your input is processed locally and is never recorded, stored, or transmitted.
