Smart Screen On/Off Auto for Android
Tried loads of auto screen on apps and this is the best. This app is *brilliant*. RAM footprint is tiny (below 3MB), Gravity Screen regularly used 80-100MB with the same settings (proximity only, Screen off timeout set to 'Off'). Battery usage is also ridiculously low. Tested in aeroplane mode overnight, no battery drain whatsoever in 8 hours using proximity mode only. I'll say that again, no battery drain overnight. I'm sold. Excellent work dev.
It's a really really helpful app that makes things easier especially for those big phone users. And I believe that it would be totally perfect just if it has a **double tap-turn on screen ** function. Or it already has it but only for pro version? Just let me know ASAP. Tq
Very inconsistent - worked okay for the 1st hour. However, when I attempted to turn the phone back on through swiping the proximity sensor, it refused to respond. Uninstalled then reinstalled the app: it appears to be working, although I assume it will lapse again. Would appreciate a response regarding this issue.
So far this is the only app I have found that I can turn off screen and open back with fingerprint (on Pixel XL) and not have to also enter pass code. Thank you! I'm wondering if the pay version will remove notification from the notification bar?
My Power key is not working now so your app is much helpful to me. Also can you assist me to edit the settings. Once I on the pocket mode the screen gets off when I turn my phone 180 deg , again the screen is not on I tried proximity access also. Thank again.
I would have given this app 5 stars but the amount of ads is unbelievable. It took me 3 tries before I could write this review. The ads kept popping up. Pathetic. It's such a pain in the ass. May be this is how they make you buy the paid version.
i have searched many apps to double tap on off screen because my phones power button has been weak & it take too pressure to turn on or off the display. but none of them were not worked properly last i found this app which is really working in my device nicely. thanks to the developers. i give u 5 star.
I've tried so many of these apps and this is the only one that fully works on my G4. Other apps would keep turning it off when using the camera etc, and the option to exclude apps didn't work. The ads are pushy and annoying, but at least it works.
Widget wont work on my mini launcher. Annoying floatify and too big. Bigger than a widget and app icon. When you drag in the corner? It comes back in the center. Stay always in the center. Floatify float in my messenger app and on top on my keyboard. Destruct my typing. Floatify should be like an assistive touch and float only in home screen. Please fix.
My query: I think my proximity sensor has become unresponsive and the phone screen goes blank everytime I pick/dial a call making me helpless even in case of cutting the call. Can you please share what settings should I use in your app so that my screen is always ON even during calls and it only responds to power button if I want to switch off the screen during calls. Your help is appreciated.
App is very good indeed, but where it lacks is it doesn't have in built option as double tap to wake up.. For this feature again we've to download another app.. this is really annoying.. Developer must work on my feedback and release it soon in the upcoming update.
I was having trouble with a similar, very popular app, so decided to give this one a try. I've only used the simple on/off feature so far, but it works perfectly and quickly. Immediately bought the Pro version. Thanks, Dev!
I damn love it for the first time, and then i don't understand why after few days, it begins to not detect my cover for on and off. Can it be fixed??? Because i had to reinstall to get the function back.. I'm not sure will it happen again and i had to reinstall again...
You killed it with the ads. You don't have ads popup on my phone through the course of the day with your app. If every app did this, the phone would be unusable. I tried a similar app, one that does not slam my phone with ads. You need to provide additional functionality that people may be willing to pay you for.
Do not make the mistake to install this App. It refuses to disable or uninstall. Worse yet, help from the dev has been nonexistent. Avoid this App at all costs. Edit to Developer: Uninstalling from inside the App does not work. You would have known that, if you actually read your emails.
My phone's power button is gone. Thanks to this app. I can save few bucks! But i dont like the sensor turning on/off when i don't need it to.. Say when i put it in my bag,pocket etc. It turns on automatically!
U plea people not to rate one but how is it not possible since we cant uninstall it.. if u know this then FIX THIS! Rather than hoping for people to rate u more than one star. I can give one but since overall it acceptable.. sometimes it lags but i can compromise.. still we should be able to uninstall this
Cool app just put hand close to sensor and off it goes or set to double tap to turn off or tap shortcut icon to turn of...cool. :) Loved it lol. Only one thing...just discovered...when I go listen to messages and put phone to ear, it shuts off phone. What's the solution?
But I wish I could switch off the pocket sensor, because when I pick up my phone from a table it locks all the time and it's a bit annoying. So I will buy the full version it's a good app works flawlessly.
It is forcing me to enter my pin after my fingerprint. I just turned off my lock screen not a big deal for me! Love just shipping my thumb over selfish camera to wake up phone. Very useful for people with disabilities. Keep up the good work!
Double tap on home screen to turn off screen doesn't work..& the proximity sensor also...please solve,then I would try pro version. I use Next Launcher in my Phone
It's important to me that there are no ads when using my phone and not using any apps. This app was very upsetting to me. Frankly, the ads must be getting the developer so much money--and not to mention the app isn't even good at what it does!
solves all my problems now that my power button has broken. i could even say it is more convenient. also, it doesnt seem to use a lot more battery like similar apps
Though the app works great what it is intended for but it drains the battery like anything. Battery goes down by 10% every hour after installing this app. Please do some modifications in resources being consumed.
I've been using it a lot since I moved from my s-view cover. A small problem though is that I have to turn off the app everytime I have to play a game ...it shuts the screen every time I start to play ... plz do something abt that ..other wise it's an awesome app to have
The swipe to turn on/off doesnt always work. Double tap is fiddly, dont always work as intended. The cover on/off though works better. The ads is obnoxious.
1)Double tap 'on' doesn't work all the time. 2)WiFi based unlocker is a good idea, but doesn't work. 3)Sometime clicked "app protection" goes back to the default unchecked / On Lenovo K52e78 with Android 5.1. Thank you!
My power button broke and I downloaded this app and now I just hover my hand above the phone and it turns off or on. Thank you so much for saving me money and time
On MIUI 7 all features work pretty good, but since upgraded to MIUI 8 the double tap to turn off feature doesn't work as well. Pls fix this so you're worthy to get the 5 stars. GGWP Thx.
Works just as intended. It's just like iOS 10's raise to wake but better because you can also have it set to lock when you set it down on the screen. Its better than what I was looking for (Double tab to wake/lock). Will update if I have any problems, but none after 2 hours of using it.
works great max time but it is behaving strangely in my phone. After installations, it works great for one day or two, then suddenly nothing works. Then reinstall it, everything is fine. Can't figure the root of prob. It's such an amazing app. Don't know why me is facing such strange behaviours....
I'll give it 4 stars if the bug regarding shortcut at home screen can be solved. With my Samsung J7 lollypop version it has no problem and all the features worked fine. But after upgradation to Marshmallow, some bugs have been found. On MM version I cudn't able to create shortcut at homescreen. So I had reinstalled the app. After reinstalling I was able to create the shortcut. But as i rebooted my J7, shortcut has vanished and after that I cudn't able to create it further.
I've seen someone review that this app was no longer working anymore after several days. And yes, mine too. It won't wake up. I've restarted it, clear cache but still. Or u just need me to buy the full ver?
I have around 15MB of usage in one week from this app. Considering what it does and the fact that the user has to give it admin access to the phone.. I want to know what data is being received (transmitted ?) by the app
Double tap to take the screen off is work. And why it wont work to wake the screen on!? Or i miss the setting? If it can i will buy the pro version, give 5 stars and share this app to my friends, thanks. And for the cover its using infra red sensor like you in a call, is it draining battery fast?
Unfortunately my device also has the problem where this app stops working to turn my phone on via the proximity sensor gesture. That's all I wanted to use it for. It was awesome when it worked!
Its good but theres a BIG issue for a gamer sigh. I ticked some apps on exception list, mainly games, but it still locks the screen when i accidentally slide my finger to the sensor.
the feature I need most is sleeping time I mean schedule on off but it isn't working, please fix this issue, thank you
Great app but.. Even im not using my cellphone (Xperia Z5 premium) My battery is draining using this app Even though im not using it... Plss fix the issue To save the battery I know i saw some battery saver right at the bottom of the setting of this app But i dont know how it works and how can i use it

I paid for the pro version which worked fine with the proximity gestures. You choose how many you do to open the phone. As I said it was fine with my note 7,but won't let me re-download the paid version since I've tried it on my S6 edge . The dev tells me it's Googles fault! I wasn't aware they made the application. Thanks dev, really helpful. Don't bother with these clowns. They had my money and don't care now, don't bother.
