About Battery GO Helper

Games like Pokemon GO (Ingress) is running while your screen is on and unlocked.

This app allows you to lock and black out screen without stopping game process. In this case you can put your smartphone in your pocket and walk without fear of unwanted screen presses. Also you can save battery life by putting the screen in a lower power state.

For Amoled screen's devices, this means close to zero battery drain while, in LCD screens, the lowest brightness will help a lot to save battery. For devices with Root access, we have special option, to turn off screen completely.

Free features:
1. Automaticaly detecting when Game started
2. You can create own list of apps to activate Battery GO Helper
3. Use several methods of locking screen: Notification, Proximity sensor, ChatHead (Floating button)
4. Several way to unlock: single, double, long click, volume button
5. Keep the screen always on while the game is in foreground.
6. If you have a compatible device the proximity sensor will turn the screen off, so this is also good for LCD devices.
7. Sound control when the screen is black. Mute or maximise sound
8. Lock the hardware buttons while the app is running!
9. Special option for device with Root access.

Paid features:
1. Using device orientation and volume button to lock screen
2. Ability to set Pattern lock

How to use:
1. Activate application
2. Launch Pokemon Go (Ingress) or other app from selected list!
3. Use any way to block screen, from selected in Settings section
4. Double tap by screen to go back

Notes:
1. Don't press your phone's power button after locking Game as that would cause your screen to fully turn off and for Game to stop.
2. My Accessibility service on my Android keeps getting disabled. Why? It may be to do with Samsung's App Optimisation feature. Go to Android Settings > General > Battery > look under App Optimization and select Details. Then find LastPass and turn it off.

It won't let me set the permissions, I have no idea why! Initially I had a screen filter but I disabled it fully so I have no idea what's the problem

Adding things to my phone without permission. Not today Google. Bye.

Absolutely the most useful app for Pokemon go...

O70%

Completely useless.

Edit: Thanks for adding the proximity sensor delay option! One last request to make this app perfect - please add an option to make the chathead icon transparent/translucent, also please add an option to choose a custom chat head icon.

My phone won't run apps if the screen is locked, so this app works around that perfectly.

by K####:

Excellent App! Tried a bunch of Pokemon GO battery saving apps, this app seems to work the best. What made me stay with this one is that it seems to be the only app where it properly disables the "recent apps" and "back" capacitive buttons, without requiring root.

But would be better if i there is an option to triple tap to unlock.

U70%
by U####:

Be better if it was free I know it used be I'll still use it but I won't give 5 stars due to it not being free to use all of it

Custom apps supported, light on resources, numerous convenience features. Bought the app =D

Button disappeared, guess it's for the trash now.

I tried other Battery savers but none had set unlock to button instead of tap, or a chat head feature. I skateboard and Go so I need those two features due to constant pocket presses and one hand use. I have some issues with settings clearing and having to re-set them, but otherwise this works very well. Not sure what proximity sensor option does either. Other similar programs don't seem to stack up to this one. Best and first $1.09 from Google Opinion Rewards I ever spent.

The screen is in low light mode with all pixels blacked out. So after awhile it will still heat up as if the game was still running with the screen turned on

Great app and developer support.

This is a rip off of the original battery go...

K70%
by K####:

The best lock screen app I've seen that works with pokemon go. My phone lacks the hardware for the battery saver to work but this is even better. I've only had issues with the phone coming back on when someone calls, it causes the phone to lag coming back but not too badly.

Nowhere in the description does it say that you have to pay for it after a 3-day trial period.

W70%
by W####:

Why does it auto start when I reboot my phone?

V70%
by V####:

Just a trial. Should be labelled as such.

Only decent settings are available through paid version
