I use the notification bar option. I'd been using a proximity app, but I got too many unwanted shut offs. While I still use one to turn the phone on, this app is perfect for shut off since it is never activated accidentally. Together they help extend the life of the physical power switch. Samsung S3.

A great app that saves you when you have problems on your physical buttons. I would give it 5 Stars except for: on turning on it displays a "Thanks" message above an OK button except as you are about to click it, an Advert pops up and as the content is centered on the screen, the button shifts up and you end up clicking the Ad. Also the option for the Off Button in the notification area which works fine but can you add an Off Button on the desktop or in settings?

Please make another paid version of this app without those annoying popups.. Other than that, it's a great app.

Very good application. This application reduce the use off the power botton and will longer the life of this button.

I'm very particular with apps having no ads. Please remove pop up dialogue box and maybe a pro version to remove the ads.

Did not turning off on my Lenovo. Popup is annoyed

Y70%
by Y####:

My power button practically didn't work and my phone company did not want to fix it. Thanks to you, I avoided having to pay hefty amounts and I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for making this app. Sure it is a bit glitchy and the "thank you" pop up is kind of silly, but aside from this it will fulfill its purpose as intended.

P70%
by P####:

I will give 5 stars if there is no pop up after unlocking screen using proximity sensor .....my power button is so hard to press that's why I am using this app but hated it because of annoying pop up
