While there are plenty of app for Android color calibration, all of them require rooting the device.

Navigate to Developer options and open “Cool color temperature”.

Adjust the screen color on your Android device.

Select “Color appearance” and then tap on “Calibrate display”, which should bring up a window with three bars – Red, Green, and Blue (R G B).All the three color bars are set at full by default, so in order to increase the color tint of one color, you must bring down the other two. For instance, if you wish to add a pleasant blue tint, take down the R and G bars a notch, until you find the right calibration level.Press on Apply to confirm your choice. As a safety net, Google has added a confirmation window where you must press OK to confirm your calibration choice. If you don’t press OK within 10 seconds, the display will revert back to the default calibration.Since this is a Developer Preview version, you can’t be certain that Android will add the option to adjust the screen color on your Android with the premiere release on Android N at Google I/O 2016.Would you like to the see the cool color temperature feature be added to the public Android N release?
