Certainly! With Glimmr, you have the flexibility to adjust the brightness of individual monitors in a multi-monitor setup. The tool recognizes and allows you to control each connected monitor separately.

Glimmr should run on all versions of Windows 7 and up, including Windows 8, 10, and 11.
Absolutely! Glimmr utilizes DDC/CI to directly adjust brightness, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of monitors. In case you encounter flickering or consistent brightness levels, consider trying a different connection type (preferably direct instead of using adapters or USB-C hubs). Alternatively, you can utilize Shade Mode, which works seamlessly on all monitors regardless of the connection type.
With a premium license, you can easily activate Shade Mode on any monitor. This feature enables you to adjust the brightness of your monitors by creating an Always-On-Top (AOT) semi-transparent window on the desired monitor. Please note that certain native Windows elements, such as the taskbar, may appear above this window when focused. Shade Mode is particularly useful if you frequently rely on adapters or USB-C hubs for monitor connections, encounter issues when adjusting brightness natively, or prefer setting your monitors to lower brightness levels than what they typically offer.
Absolutely! The scheduling feature allows you to create a custom brightness schedule tailored to your preferences. Simply specify the target monitors, desired times, and corresponding brightness levels, and Glimmr will automatically adjust the brightness of your monitors according to the schedule you've set. This enables you to have an optimized viewing experience at different times, without the need for manual adjustments.
