Brightness Hotkey? for sunlight/invisible screen

[jlm86]

What might be the work around for a key to hit and enable Max Brightness?

I find myself at times outside, and damn cannot see the ***** screen, so i cannot even dive into the home screen to see to hit max brightness?

Ideally: Would like a 2-Click Home Button to enable Max Brightness..

thanks

Have you not got the brightness slider in notification area yet?

Setting your brightness to auto should put it to max when you're in bright sunlight.

And if you find the auto brightness too dim (as many do), the app Lux Auto Brightness works great--you can set the brightness vs. ambient light level to whatever you want.

I dont like autobrightness. It doesn't go to Max, so its still not always bright enough. Plus I dont like the constant use of sensors to set the appropriate brightness. I actually find it detrimental to battery life compared to manually setting it.

That said, it leaves you with the possible setting too low when you're at lock screen.
