Great app to save battery by reducing screen brightness.

I have always thought the brightness in the screen was to bright on the EVO V. Even in complete darkness turning on the screen would almost blind me.

Well I found this app called Auto-Brightness on the app Store and it's great. I have completely changed the increment level for brightness according to the built-in sensor.

When is completely dark, I set the brightness to the minimum, when is very bright to the max.

This has saved me about 10%-15% of battery per day. At this time of the day I should have about 55% battery. I am still at 68%. 7 hours unplugged.
 
It seems cool, but how do I use it? I read the instructions, but it seems to be glitching...? The curve goes up, plateaus at the top, and then goes down at the end.
 
Don't turn brightness below 10, or the phone will get the suck on the screen lock and reboots when making calls.

Also, I prefer the "Display Brightness" app as it puts a handy widget in the status bar.
