# Ambien

Toggle dark mode in macOS Mojave based on ambient lighting

Ambien is a proof-of-concept app that uses the ambient light sensor on your Mac to switch between dark mode and light mode. When you’re in a dark environment, your Mac will switch to dark mode. When you’re in a brightly-lit environment, your Mac will switch to light mode.

[Download Latest Release](https://github.com/neilsardesai/Ambien/releases/download/0.1/Ambien.app.zip)

### IMPORTANT

This app uses a private API to read data from the ambient light sensor. This means that Ambien may not work in a future version of macOS. Heck, it might even be broken right now. I’ve only tested this on my Mid 2014 MacBook Pro, so who knows if it’ll work for you ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯

Also, this was hacked together in several hours and originally intended for my own personal use. So please don’t judge my code 😔
