Every update is creating more problems! The automatic adjusting backlight is either overly bright or way too dark now. I've resorted to manually adjusting it so I can actually see my screen. The, shake to turn on flashlight, no longer works either. In fact, I can't even get my flashlight to turn on when I try to manually. It said it was this apps settings but when I checked them they were where I need them to be. I used to love Motorola but I'm about to try a different brand :(

I find the flashlight feature useful occasionally, but the face down to enter do not disturb is just plain stupid. I've never met anyone whom this little known "feature" hasn't caused them to miss important phone calls, and they have no idea why, and only much later do they find out the cause and disable it (only to have updates reenable it). I know 2 people who were fired for failing to respond to calls from work because of this. Default this to being off, please.

They got rid of night mode turning on at sunset. Automatic mode made night mode come on right before I went to bed which means all evening my eyes are picking up blue light. I loved having night mode come on at sunset it made looking at my phone in the evenings so much easier on my eyes. That was a great feature please bring it back. As of now I have turned off the automatic feature in favor of the manual time setting so night mode kicks in as close to sunset as I can get it because once I go to bed I'm no longer looking at my phone so I need night mode on all evening not just close to my bedtime. Edit, response to Moto action team: Thanks for your response. I will still be leaving my phone in manual mode. I really prefer having night mode on while it is dark. I have never noticed night mode to actually induce sleepiness and prefer a dimmer screen while driving with the GPS as it reduces the glare in my face and windows so I can see outside of my vehicle better. If you really want my suggestion for improving the app it is this: have all 3 options available. We have so many different people with different needs. I am sure automatic mode works great for some people, others will prefer manual and by the comments I've seen, myself and many others prefer sunset mode. So let's have them all available then everyone can be happy.
