PaperScreen: E-Paper Eye Care

About this app

Bring your screen closer to paper. PaperScreen is a visual comfort tool for anyone who spends long hours at a display. By combining paper-inspired tones, natural textures, and soft light, it reduces the hard digital feel of a screen while keeping text crisp, colors present, and motion intact. Whether you are working, reading, writing, browsing the web, or simply using your computer every day, PaperScreen gives the screen a softer, quieter appearance. KEY FEATURES • Color E-paper Choose from distinct paper styles that preserve the color of your screen while bringing it closer to the feel of a printed page. • Soft Light Move from natural soft light to gentle warmth or deep amber, and choose the view that feels right to you. • Schedules Turn PaperScreen on, pause it, or switch modes automatically at the times you choose. • Multiple displays Choose exactly which displays receive the effect. Newly connected displays can be included automatically. • App exclusions Pause the effect for selected apps and restore it automatically when you move elsewhere. • Quick controls Use the menu bar and a global shortcut to turn PaperScreen on, pause it, or switch modes without interrupting your work. All effects and settings are processed locally and offline. WHY PAPERSCREEN EXISTS I spend long hours in front of a screen every day. Several years ago, I built a brightness utility, but gradually realized that making an image darker did not remove the unmistakably digital feel of a display. Later, while looking at the printed books and e-paper reader beside me, I began exploring whether a screen could feel softer and quieter like paper while still keeping its color and motion. After many rounds of adjusting paper tones, textures, and soft-light effects, PaperScreen became a tool I genuinely wanted to keep on every day. I am sharing it now in the hope that it can make your screen feel more natural and comfortable too.
