Question

Hi folks,It would be very nice if a native speaker could check the following text. Of course, if you do have some questions about the german language, i will answer it. Just to give you the right context, this text is a description text for an app (sorry, this should not be advertising spam).Note: $1.99 is an introductory price for a short period of time only. The regular price is $3.99. Sunset helps you to dim any Screen, even more than normally possible. Try it out, your eyes will thank you! Some capabilities: - You open your laptop at late night and get blinded, but the brightness is already at the lowest setting. - It is very complicated or impossible to change the brightness of your external Screen - If you have changed the brightness, the monitor starts to make an annoying beeping noise. Since Sunset uses a software-based approach to dim the screen, you can definitely circumvent the problem with the beeping noise at some displays. So in some cases, also your ears will thank you!Thank you very much for your help! As I said, if you have a short text you want to have translated into german, just contact me.best regards,Olaf

Sunset helps you to dim your computer's screen, more than is possible with the built-in controls.

Some scenarios: (how about being on an airplane? Lots of times you do not want to annoy the person beside you, or encourage him to spy on what you are doing. Another situation is being in a darkened meeting room. You don't want others to notice that you are checking your email during the meeting)
- You open your laptop late at night and are blinded, even though the brightness is at its lowest setting.
- It is very complicated or impossible to change the brightness of an external monitor
- You have changed the brightness and the monitor makes an annoying beeping noise.
Since Sunset uses a software-based approach (employs software) to dim the screen, you can definitely circumvent the problem with the beeping noise at some displays. So in some cases, your ears will thank you too!

Thank you very much.

I've made most of the changes, but I also have some questions.

Sunset helps you to dim your computer's screen

I want to point out that the App supports up to 3 screens, so is "any" instead of "your computer's" that bad?

- You have changed the brightness and the monitor makes an annoying beeping noise.

Some mointors just beep if you set another brightness than the default value. I'm not sure if this causality becomes clear to the reader immediately. For now, i didn't change that sentence.

Thank you for the tip with the airplane

I have added this scenario:

- You don't want to wake up your seatmate on an airplane.?

regards,

Olaf

Hi Olaf;

OlafI want to point out that the App supports up to 3 screens, so is "any" instead of "your computer's" that bad?

Aha! That's a nice feature. You can say "any of your computer's screens."

If you have multiple screens, can your set them together and independently? It might be weird in a dual-screen situation of having one dim and the other bright!

The meeting room is also a common scenario. So many people bring their devices to meetings, that it becomes distracting. In our lectures, they now announce "set your device's displary to "dim" if you want to use them to take notes. Otherwise, turn them off." It would be nice to have fine control over the brightness... but then many bring devices like iPads and iPhones...
