About Screen Off Kill

Want to be able to close apps automatically when you turn your screen off? Then this app is your answer!

So why would you want to close apps when you turn your screen off? Ever wondered why your battery drains so fast, even during the night when you are not using it? It is because even when the screen is turned off some apps continue to run in the background, doing nothing really useful, but continue to consume CPU, battery and data. A prime example is a web browser, such as Chrome or Opera, that will continue to run Javascript on web pages in open tabs even when the screen is turned off. One of the reasons for doing this is to continually update annoying ads even though they can't be seen with the screen off!

This app closes those apps automatically for you when you turn the screen off. Your CPU, battery and mobile data plan will thank you for it.

Simple to use, just select which apps to close when the screen is turned off and this app will take care of the rest! No root required!

Your app has some bugs. When you tap to open and it loads it sometimes displays zero apps and services are running, and when you go into the apps to kill and the menu shows the current applications that are installed it display duplicate of the same app and gives the option to mark the same app to be killed twice when screen is off
