Nighty Lighty: The Ultimate Nighttime Parenting App for Gentle Illumination

Hello! I thought I'd write about UI/UX design this time.
Raising two young children aged one and two, I often find myself needing a dim light during the night for tasks like soothing crying or changing diapers.
Sometimes, while holding my child and wandering around the house at night, I realize the need for a light. It’s a hassle to carry around a big physical light, and even buying one seems bothersome. As someone who tends to be lazy, I was looking for a way to use my smartphone instead.
I tried several existing light apps, but none suited me; they hurt my eyes, and I had to look directly at the smartphone to operate them.
That’s when I decided to create something I wanted—a nursing light app just for me.

We also have the Android app as well.

Key Features:

  • Operable with just a swipe of a finger, so there’s no need to look at the screen.
  • Provides a gentle, eye-friendly glow.
  • The screen stays on without locking, so there’s no need to constantly unlock your phone.
I designed the app to meet these three essential requirements I had. It’s been over a year since its creation, and it’s being used by users around the world.

Hundreds of users are using this app every day now. It feels great to provide something of value to so many people.
The app is free, so feel free to try it out.
