Description Marcos Dione 2025-03-14 17:46:04 UTC 
SUMMARY
Night light can be configured to start based on LatLon coordinates, and that's awesome. But sometimes it's so cloudy/rainy that it starts getting dark earlier. I would like a button to force starting the transition now, but leaving the configuration as is, so the next time it starts at the proper time based on LatLon.

It would be great if there was just a button to turn it on manually whenever you wanted, regardless of config. Right now, you can't enable it unless you open the settings and configure it that way, but a simple button would be helpful for those impromptu times you'd like the displays to be more comfortable to your eyes without having to go through multiple steps and overwriting your old config.
