Use Night Shift on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
Night Shift automatically adjusts the colors of your display to the warmer end of the spectrum — making the display easier on your eyes.
About Night Shift
Night Shift1 uses the clock and geolocation of your device to determine when it’s sunset in your location. Then it automatically shifts the colors of your display to warmer colors. In the morning, it returns the display to its regular settings.

Open Control Center. Touch and hold the Brightness control icon, then tap the Night Shift button
