Abstract
This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-readable media, for controlling a display screen brightness level for an electronic device. In one embodiment, the electronic device receives a plurality of ambient light levels from a plurality of light sensors. At least a first ambient light level is received from a wearable device separate from the first device. The electronic device determines an aggregate ambient light level based, at least in part, on the plurality of ambient light levels. The electronic device adjusts a display screen brightness level of a display in the first device based, at least in part, on the aggregate ambient light level.
