Hello,
you can wipe from top to down to viewing widget, then you can adjust the backlight

Thanks but it seems that you can only change brigthness but not tell to always on backlight when night comes

Hi. There is a better solution. Install a data field called "Let there be light" from the IQ Store. Set in on any active screen and the backlight will activate automatically after sunset and deactivate with sunrise. Enjoy!

It is only a solution on sunny days. Cycling in a tunnel or dark wood there is a problem.

On the widget with automatic brightness is a good solution. I have set to 20% and allways on.. If the Daylight is bright, the backlight goes to 0%
