I'm trying to have my 'nighttime' view on my Android phone go dimmer at night. The idea is that I can leave it showing without it lighting up the whole room but I can still see to hit the larger buttons for the 4 controls that are one it. I thought I might be able to do it with scenes but I don't see how. Any pointers, or telling me to stop wasting my time :-), gratefully received.

I think browser-mod will do what you want.
You'll register the device's browser (or app). It will create some Entities for you, one will be a light entity which is dimmable. This brightness setting does not change the actual brightness of the device itself but will dim whatever the browser (or app) is showing. You can then work that entity into an automation to handle what times to be dim and bright. You could put a button to call the automation (or a script): if bright, make dim; if dim, make bright.
