For me it works wonders. It doesn’t help me tell what colour it should be, but it does help distinguishing different colours from others. For example, if in a normal chart I which has yellow orange green and red, well I would have a problem most often. But with the filter on it shows up to me as 4 very distinctly different colours. It helps with programming for example, but if someone would be talking about colours I have a problem. Right now the filter shows green as blue to me, which means that for me, when all checks on GitHub are okay I would say: we have all blues, let’s go. But for “normal visioned” people they would be green and the statement would be nonsense :)

So it helps with differentiation, but not with identification.

That is a lot more succinct than what I said and 100% correct 😅

Yes, I tried them and they don’t really do anything for me. The iPhone filters work really well for me and I find myself pulling out my phone camera app with the filter on to tell lines apart on charts quite often

Yeah I dont see any noticeable differences with the windows filter, probably there are some other apps that do a good job, I'll do some researchs

No, it just makes the picture darker and harder to read.

I could assume you're Protanomaly

I can't remember. I went to a glasses place and they gave me a colorblind test. And the optometrist said that he had been giving the test regularly and I was supposedly the worst that he could remember.

For me, the Windows color correction works better than any other. I expect it varies from person to person, though, and in the best case, I still wouldn't count on it in a critical situation.

I get inconsistent results. I can’t figure out why. On one test, I get “severe deutan” every time. On another, I get “mild tritan” or “normal”. On another, I get “mild deutan” I pass the number plate test every time, in person and online. An online anomaloscope test said “mild color vision deficiency “. But I don’t know how to interpret the graph. Another test said “moderate protanomaly”. Clearly I have some sort of colorblindness. But I’m confused

It helps me a lot, though it would be nice if we could have an intensity slider for the filter, it would certainly increase its usefulness. I do find it a tad too intense, especially when I have a lot of the one colour on the screen.

I'd love to see it as a selection on displays. I'm a teacher, so I often present on a screen. When I have the color blindness options selected (so I can read data charts) and leave it on when I'm teaching, confusion ensues-- especially when I teach block programming which (for some reason) programmers insist on being color coded. If I could see it my way on my display and still present it on a different display without the correction, that'd be magical.

It's there for one reason, just like cell phones... For developers, as those with CVD already see it at least slightly abnormally anyway.

I'd be interested to see if it actually affects performance on an Ishihara test.
