# How to change Night Light’s colour temperature during the day on Ubuntu

**[omg\! ubuntu\!](https://daily.dev/sources/omgub)** · 2 min read · 1 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Night Light Scheduler is a new GNOME Shell extension that extends GNOME's built-in Night Light feature by allowing users to set up to 7 different colour temperatures at specific times throughout the day, with configurable transition periods between them (0–120 minutes). It supports GNOME 46 through GNOME 50 (Ubuntu 24.04 LTS to 26.04 LTS) and can be installed via the GNOME Extensions website or the Extensions Manager app. Schedule configurations can be exported and imported as .ini files.
