F.lux regularly hard crashes (blue screens) computers, doesn't let you choose the sunset/sunrise times and the owners are the most self-righteous assholes I've ever interacted with from a customer service perspective. Use SunsetScreen instead if you want more controls and brightness dimming. Another good option is the Windows 10 built in Night Light paired with ClickMonitorDDC.
Dimming the screen through software like in SunsetScreen and F.lux is bad for your eyes though. Ideally you want to change the brightness from the monitor itself with either the buttons on the frame or using ClickMonitorDDC to change it from your keyboard and then change only the color using Night Light/SunsetScreen.
You might be lucky enough to avoid F.lux ruining your system, but I was stuck gaming at the absolute minimum settings on my $2200 system for over 6 months while I struggled to figure out what was constantly crashing my games after 10-20 minutes. It would even crash if I opened too many tabs. Instantly fixed by disabling f.lux.
Flux is better because of the wide customization and adaptation available. I think iPhones only dim to one brightness, but F.lux changes throughout the day
Get f.lux, pede - it's a game changer. It's one of the first things I install on a new computer.

My Mac already has that feature. iPhones have it as well.

Yes, both change to a warmer color (adjustable) at sunset, and return to daylight settings at sunrise.
Windows 10 does too. It's called night light.
