People who are colorblind will find a screen that has been switched to grayscale much easier to work with.

It may be good for the rest of us as well because it's said to be easier on the eyes.

Using it at night could give your optics a rest and convince you to put down the phone and get some sleep.

If you use a Pixel or other Android phone, you can have two ways to switch the screen to Grayscale.

You can also turn grayscale on and off using the Color correction tile in your Quick Settings menu.

Android’s Accessibility toolkit can also be used to turn on the color correction feature in its accessibility toolkit.

Samsung also has a Sleep mode that automatically goes into a graycale mode in its Sleep mode.
