About Screen Control

Screen Control is an app that will turn the screen on or off using the proximity sensor.

Features:
- The screen will automatically turn off when it detects being inside a pocket or face down on a table. It will also automatically turn back on when removed from these conditions.
- You can wave your hand over the sensor to turn on and off as well.
- Sensor is deactivated when the phone is in landscape mode to prevent accidental reads.
- Widget (Only turns off the screen and must have device admin enabled)
- Simple UI
- Simple setup
- No ads
- Small file size

NOTE: Since every phone's sensor is different, please contact me if you have any problems so that I can fix it.

Instructions are included if you press the menu button on your phone and select Help.

To uninstall this application, you HAVE to remove the device admin.

I have a jellybean phone and this is the only app which works . Brilliant . And no ads and no special permissions needed. Thats y i installed it. Nowadays every app requires unnecessary permissions.

you don't need the hassle of aggressive shaking anymore, maybe the option to flip on face is missing, but still works better than the rest

Great way to work around poorly placed buttons. May need to test sensitivity when moving, picking up, setting down, etc.

I am using it on new Nexus 7 since I don't have the case yet that locks and unlocks screen yet. Works great and easy to use.

This is the best of all the screen control apps activated by proximity sensor available on the Play Store. It really works. If you don't mind, I'd like to ask for one thing... Instead of locking the screen, isn't it possible to make it just turn the screen on/off? The reason for that is sometimes we're typing or holding the phone and accidentally touch the sensor. Then, we have to type the unlock password to get the screen unlocked again. This is really annoying. Thanks, guys.
