I do read all the time on phone and tablets, with the brightness turned way down, I find it quite comfortable. When the native brightness control doesn't dim enough, I use Screen Dim or Low Light apps for dimming. ScreenDim can also lower contrast if desired.

I'm convinced that at least half the people who dislike reading on LCD would change their minds if they used a dimming app to get the backlight low enough.
I had to google it--it's in Accessibility options on my phone. I tried it, and I really don't see any difference.

What is it supposed to do? I would assume from the name that it darkens fonts or something?
