General Terms
BrightScreen is a free macOS desktop application developed by MycoNet that allows users to override inbuilt macOS brightness limitations , offering enhanced control over screen visibility and comfort. The App is intended for personal use to adjust display brightness beyond what macOS typically allows.
You are solely responsible for any activity on your device while using Bright Screen. This includes maintaining the safety of your computer, ensuring that no unauthorized users install or misuse the App, and that you comply with your operating system’s guidelines.
If your device overheats, suffers from performance issues, or if the screen or internal components are damaged as a result of increased brightness or extended usage, you accept full responsibility.
Bright Screen does not collect or log personal data, nor does it monitor your activity. For more details, see our Privacy Policy.
We continuously improve Bright Screen to enhance performance, fix bugs, and introduce new features. The App may be updated, changed, or temporarily disabled at any time without notice. MycoNet and its team do not accept liability for any damage, inconvenience, or system behavior caused by using the App or modifying macOS settings.
