First look: Night Shift mode comes to Mac in latest macOS Sierra beta

Using F.lux now, but like the idea of control center toggle.

Any limitations for specific hardware as it is on iOS or simply any MacBook/Pro can have it?

Cannot wait for NightShift. I am confident future testing shows mountains of evidence that features like Night Shift do work. It's significantly easier to look at an adjusted display at night. We're hard wired to associate different coloured bright lights that we stare into with different times of day. A cold blue display just isn't very sensible as the later evening comes, where the wind down should start. The body clock is a very real thing as I found out by watching the BBC TV documentary "Horizon: the secret life of your body clock" several years ago. I think it was the 70's when that scientist experimented by living away from natural light in a deep cave for months and using special equipment for monitoring he discovered when the results came in that after a period of adjustment he was indeed eating at dinner time and sleeping at night time.

The limitations on iOS are genuinely needed as older phones and iPads are much slower. Doubt such limitations will be needed on any Macs that run Sierra.

My main issues with f.lux are its settings are unnecessarily fiddly and confusing to many users. And it's very buggy and has been for several years. I uninstalled f.lux a few months ago—finally had enough. As soon as NS comes out I expect to switch it to sunset mode and never touch it again.
