Smart Screen Off PRO (v. 2.2) Разработано AndroidHD |
IMPORTANT: download and test LITE version, and make sure it works BEFORE buying this PRO version.
THE APP DOESN'T LOCK YOUR PHONE, NO SECURITY! Don't download if you want security on!!!!
(Light sensor combo works great with recent smartphones like Galaxy Nexus; Light sensor combo could not work good with old smartphone, because the built in sensor is of poor quality).
If you use TIMER DELAY + LIGHT SENSOR: Timer delay will start every times the proximity sensor is covered, but it will turn off screen only when is reached the "minimum + sensitivity" of light condition you set in the settings.
- If you use Task Killers or Memory Cleaner, remember to add Smart Screen Off to exceptions!

***************************************
************ DESCRIPTION *************
Smart Screen Off PRO it's a simple and light app which uses the Proximity Sensor built in your Android smartphone to turn the screen off and on automatically.
**************************************
************** REASON ****************
I decided to code this app when I bought my Galaxy Nexus: this device doesn't have any physical button on the front screen. Being a quite huge phone, it's quite difficult to press the "turn off" button every time I wanted to turn it off and on. So I needed a way to turn the screen off every time I put it into the pockets and off when removed.
**************************************
************ HOW IT WORKS *************
The app itself is a toggle button, to switch it on just press the App Icon. Then every time you put the phone into your pockets the screen turns off.
If you put the smartphone upside down on the table, the screen turns automatically off.
NOTE: It doesn't lock the screen (just like in a call)
**************************************
************ REQUIREMENTS *************
In order to use Smart Screen Off, you need to have a phone with Proximity Sensor and Light Sensor (nowadays every smartphone incorporate both).

[2012-10-18] Darius: .. Now it is really good, just needs some usability improvements. |
|
[2012-10-12] Vince: Would I like to see a swipe option I've tried several different apps and this is still the only one that can turn off the screen without going to the lock screen that works on my phone. But I would like to see an option for the sensor to have a minimum time covered so that the screen can be turned off by a swipe but not by covering the sensor for a long time |
|
[2012-09-30] russell: Bad app App stopped working after 2 days wtf!!!!!! |
|
[2012-09-27] Kaliif: 4.0.4 not working 4.0.4 not working, stuck on acquiring. Please fix this app. |
|
[2012-09-07] Neil: Battery killer Its a good idea and works, but uses over 10% of my total battery consumption. Had to stop using it as was draining my battery. And its not compatible with the default Alarm |
|
[2012-09-07] plaidcounty: Nice app! Great app. Love how it works as advertised. It would be even better as a locale/taker plugin. |
|
[2012-09-06] Gianni: Excellent Very useful for me because my Galaxy W was often switching on when in my pocket With this app I have completelly resolved my problem |
|
[2012-09-04] Salvador: Samsung Galaxy Nexus works perfect I would buy again if I had too. |
|
[2012-09-02] SteVvY: Works well Not much hitches, apart that it disable alarm on my htc one x.. any idea y? |
|
[2012-08-24] Victor: Prevents Gal. Note from going into Deep Sleep mode Works on my Galaxy Note (CM9) but prevents it from going into Deep Sleep mode, draining the battery faster than it should. Script in Tasker can do the same without draining the battery... Lite versions works OK though, no problems with the Deep Sleep state. Wrote to developer a week ago, no response yet... |
|
[2012-08-24] Brandon: Battery drain Works as advertised but drains battery. Highest battery use app on my Galaxy Nexus. |
|
[2012-08-14] Edwin: ESCruz Inconsistent rrsponse in ics galaxy note.. When screen off activated it loses security lock.. |
|
[2012-08-10] bigmouth: Works on Galaxy Note Outstanding app that works great on my blue Galaxy Note with a small modification. You have to put a white sticker on the inside of your cover where the proximity sensor is located. This will allow the proximity sensor to correctly recognize when the case is closed. PS: For anyone concerned about power drain, I haven't noticed any reduction in battery life. |
|
[2012-08-09] fariz: 1 more option disable screen off. the maximum in system i can get is 10min. if the screen off without me close my flip case, i still need to use home button to wake him up. flip off and on does not wake it up after screen timeout edit: from 4* to 3* because this app failed to re-run itself after i play heavy game even turn on icon in notification bar. need to open app, save and restart app |
|
[2012-08-06] Cristian: Great app! Thanks |
|
[2012-08-04] Sam: Poor on HTC One S Sadly I have wasted my money. I spent hours trying to get this working, trying nearly every setting to no avail. Will happily change to a 5* if someone can tell me how to get this working on a HTC One S |
|
[2012-08-02] Brian: Awesome app After the ICS update on my phone, I no longer had the ability to use the power button to put the Galaxy S2 into sleep mode without locking it every time. Just the app I needed. |
|
[2012-07-31] IngerMaaike: Just perfect Works without fail. |
|
[2012-07-30] jorem: Ingenius Really awesome app and developer responds to your emails. Highly recommended! |
|
[2012-07-26] Felipe: Great idea, I wish it worked it my phone Does not work propertly on my Motorola Atrix. Sometimes when it turns the screen off I cant get it on again no matter what I do, power button stop working too. hope you can fix it... |
|
[2012-07-16] Ian: Perfect Excellent app, zero battery drain, actually improves battery life in my case because I often forget to turn the screen off when I set my phone down, I love the settings in the PRO version compared to the LITE version. Works exactly as I need it to. |
|
[2012-07-12] mitchger: Doesn't work on One X Barely works. Plays up a lot. Sometimes it works perfectly other times not at all. Sometimes it will turn the screen on and off repeatedly non stop |
|
[2012-07-12] Wayno-san: Like it but... Impossible to listen to Google voice voicemail over the normal (non-speakerphone) speaker with this on. One of the top users of battery on my phone. |
|
[2012-07-09] Gordon: Very near app ! Best but though its the developers responsiveness - if only all were a good. |
|
[2012-06-29] azmie: Htc One S Nice but my alarm not working it will automatically become snooze have to off this app when going to sleep |
|
[2012-06-25] Xachariah: Perfect I'm very happy with this. It does what it sets out to do without any excessive battery drain. My friends are amazed at how quickly I can access my device. |
|
[2012-06-24] fleetwood: Melkein hyvä Ei toimi aivan täydellisesti. Silloin tällöin saa hepulin ja sammuttaa ruutua jatkuvasti. |
|
[2012-06-10] Helga: Perfect. Though I have an Atrix with an in-pocket sensor the screen doesn't turn off if I put it face down & come back on when I pick it up. With this app when I'm interrupted doing anything at all on the phone like watching a movie etc. I can put the phone down without any worries & resume when I'm done. That's worth heaps to me. |
|
[2012-05-26] tom phillips: HTC one s problems? Would not work on my phone. Could not get back into settings after first go |
|
[2012-05-24] KVS: Screen security (Pa, pin, pattern) does not show after wake up Screen unlock pin, pw, pattern not coming up after wake up, making the phone unsecured after wake up. Needs to be fixed immediately. |
|
[2012-05-19] MFire: Only thing I hate is... The only thing I hate is the notification icon. The one used in the free version was better. Also two icons in the app drawer is too much. Please make it just one. |
|
[2012-05-17] Matt: Awesome improvement Love it |
|
[2012-05-12] Peter: Angelo is great! Great app! Great Dev! Answers questions right away! Great app!! An easy 5 STARS! ;-) |
|
[2012-05-10] tryson: Samsung galaxy tab 7. 7 Good app. It work. |
|
[2012-05-10] Andy: Perfect Bought to basically donate. This works perfectly with my Galaxy Note with book cover case. cant remember when I used my power button last. Best part is zero battery drain. |
|
[2012-05-05] Asif: Great App Super app. Works great on galaxy note. Would love to have screen on off sound. |
|
[2012-05-04] Daniel: It does the work Very good application a lot to enhance on it for the future. On HTC One X I'm having issues saving and restarting, it does not keep the changes. Start/Stop Landscape option is also not working, not sure if is related to the HTC one X or to the first issue I mentioned. Still I'm giving four starts hoping this issues will be solved soon. |
|
[2012-04-24] Zachary: Some bugs on the Note Using AT&T galaxy note this always triggers the lowest LCD brightness. I have turned of auto brightness and yet when the app turns the screen off the LCD is too dark to see when turned back on. But the biggest problem is that I always have to go into the setting and make a change and restart to get it to stay working many times. It just simply doesn't work half the time. Third issue is this app has the highest battery drain using power saving mode out of all my other apps. |
|
[2012-04-22] Tom: Really usefull Works perfectly, loads more features than lite version, worth paying for :D. Brilliant... |
|
[2012-04-12] lindseychiew: Money well spent Works as advertised, responsive and friendly dev. If you're enjoying the free version, just put down the cash for this version. You won't be disappointed. |
|
[2012-04-07] hungmac: Works but please kinnda check why status always stop at acquiring when i enable delay. on aokp #30 4.0.4 |
|
[2012-04-05] Damian: Useful app But can you add an option whereby it actually locks the phone when the proximity sensor is covered |
|
[2012-04-04] Terence: Works great..a little suggestions for the next update.. Smart screen off works great on my galaxy nexus, only a problems is that it will trigger during voice call when i listen the phone..can u make it auto off during voicecall? Thanks.. |
|
[2012-04-02] Deepak: Galaxy nexus Perfect app!!! |
|
[2012-04-01] pawan: Perfect |
|
[2012-03-30] Rafic: HTC desire HD Excellent |
|
[2012-03-26] Jeremy Vincent: Great app Wish that it also included a timer when it turns on or off as it automatically snoozes the alarm clock when my phone is covered up |
|
[2012-03-25] Michael: Works good |
|
[2012-03-25] Raul: Please Add a feature to lock screen after a certain time. May save a bunch of idiots from giving you a bad rating because they think there phone will enter a deep idle state with this active. Galaxy nexus Edit.I'm the idiot because looking at CPU spy I'm actually entering into a deep idle state Another idiot moment... GUYS THE SCREEN DOES SHUT OFF ON ITS OWN WHEN YOU LET IT TIME OUT. GREAT APP AND GREAT ON BATTERY. BEST APP IVE EVER SEEN |
|
[2012-03-23] Paul: Doesn't save battery The only reason for having this app is to extend battery life but it consumes far more battery than it saves - uninstall |
|
[2012-03-20] Brian: 93% battery use Looking at my battery use report this app shows in the mid 90s for percent of battery use. That is unacceptable. Uninstalling. |
|
[2012-03-19] Alvin: Good apps Good overall,bit have been having a big battery drain since using this app. Is it possible that it caused by the proximity and light sensor always on with this app. |
|
[2012-03-17] Gidon: works perfectly but Preventing CPU deep sleep works perfectly except it Prevent CPU deep sleep.. drains the battery |
|
[2012-03-16] Shawn: Great idea!! This app is pretty awesome. It worked well on my skyrocket but it just isnt cut out for my note... Pitty. The dev team responds very quickly. |
|
[2012-03-15] alan: Great app works perfect on HTC desire s, it did till update, now it doesn't so deleating |
|
[2012-03-14] Andre: Not good during calls Needs to disable itself during phone calls. |
|
[2012-03-13] Tom: Works well with a minor "tweak" GT 7.7 Works well. Developer very responsive to questions & suggestions. TIP - if your book cover is dark, put a light colored post-it note or a white piece of paper inside the cover. Works like a charm. Apparently the 7.7 does not have the best sensor, so the little trick solved it. I was getting tired of turning on & off, no need to any more! |
|
[2012-03-13] Nate: Awesome Amazing app, and very well done! |
|
[2012-03-13] XGhozt: Been waiting for this! UPDATE: These features have now been implemented and it is working great so far! :) Thank you very much for the update. ---- I had this same feature on my last windows mobile phone and it was great! In comparison with that, this app has much more flexibility. However, I would like a few more changes; 1. Please allow me to completely hide the notification stuff (I checked the box, I still see the text and it's pushing over other icons). 2. Add a timeout setting so after 2-5 minutes the screen doesn't turn back on by mistake. 2a. Add a setting to not turn the screen back on once it turns off. 3. Add a setting to allow me to change the proximity setting (that is, how close until it turns off). |
|
[2012-03-12] Probey: Worth every penny! This app greatly extends battery life, my best purchase ever! Everything is perfect, except screen won't lock after it is turned off. Next feature request: lock the screen after it is turned off |
|
[2012-03-09] Freddy: The most useful app I purchase this month |
|
[2012-03-09] Hamish: Awsome app! Now works great with my galaxy note and its flip cover |
|
[2012-03-06] Steve: Fantastic app! Tried the LITE version . . .worked perfectly! Was so pleased with its performance, I purchased the Pro Version, just to SUPPORT the developer! Great Job! Thank again! |
|
[2012-03-05] Daniel: Perfect! Flawless since the most recent update... light/proximity sensor combo is a winner and completely stopped the accidental screen off events when I was trying to pull down the notification bar |
|
[2012-03-05] Mihailo: Great for a flip case! With the latest update, it's perfect for my needs. |
|
[2012-03-04] Larry: Veay Cool .... Great Software... A must have... |
|
[2012-03-04] Cyrus: Problems Calibrations are useless. ATT GS II |
|
[2012-03-03] Minh: Very nice app Would give 5 stars if there an update to use the light sensor, time delay (5 seconds?), and fix the bug which I usually find my screen is on after I open the flip case when I don't check the don't screen on after screen off option ( not that it turns on after open the case but was on already.) |
|
[2012-03-03] Niggee: Boosts Battery! I love this app. I'm running CM9 on my SGS II and it increases my battery significantly. Could you add the option to lock screen on off? That would be awesome! |
|
[2012-03-01] Leandro: Fantastic Great, powerful, simple, and smooth application that allows you to save battery without locking and unlocking the cellphone like crazy. In my case, I use it for chatting: while I wait for someone to respond (which sometimes takes little and sometimes minutes) I put my cellphone in my pocket knowing the screen will automatically turn off, and when I hear the notification, take out the cellphone and without pressing anything, the screen turns back on. This version fixes some bugs and adds new features that are key to the app, making it a must-have |
|
[2012-03-01] peek82454201: Good app Have some issues while in call on Droid X, phone will wake ( vibrate) and my face ends the call. Please make auto off exceptions for video playback. I continually find myself accidentally turning the screen off, especially when trying to hold the phone with my left hand and watch videos. The videos restart every time I get near the sensor. Could you add function for app exceptions? Where it turns off automatically with selected apps. Thanks. |
|
[2012-02-29] Geoff: Good, but... Love the idea but some conflicts - Pool Master Pro for one. Causes hard freeze requring battery removal and reboot. Galaxy Note. |
|
[2012-02-29] HaVoC504: Very nice but...... I understand that the sensor "sensitivity" can't be changed but how about an option to adjust how long the sensor has to be covered before it turns the screen off. A 2 second delay would automatically eliminate accidental activations. |
|
[2012-02-29] Hari: Excellent app Works as described. Definitely worth the money. The only thing missing is an option to lock the phone when the screen is turned off. |
|
[2012-02-29] Daryl: Best App Ever! I love my Atrix but with a difficult power button I've been looking for an app like this. I've installed and uninstalled dozens and dozens of apps but this is the only one that will turn the screen off immediately via the prox sensor. Most will only lock or turn the screen black. |
|
[2012-02-29] Shane: Power button saved One of my favorite apps. Worth the price. Does what it saids. Thank you.Evo 3D. |
|
[2012-02-28] tdg: Must have! Must have! Works good on nexus one. (upgrade from light to pro required reboot). Wish feature: app exclusion list - turn feature off when listed application is running in foreground. |
|
[2012-02-28] Evil Mike: Good! Awesome app, a feature I've wanted for ages being supplied via the free market. Seeing as this developer is just getting started in the app market, I cannot wait to see what the future holds. |
|
[2012-02-27] steelorange: A promising start An essential app especially for tablet users who would like to prolong the life of their power buttons and also get the convenience of an automated screen on-off functionality. A few more features and customization options will make this app better. Can't wait for the future versions! |
|
[2012-02-27] Negativ: Great app Anyone with a 4.3 inch screen can appreciate this. Works wonders and the dev is super fast with responses. |
|
[2012-02-27] Fernie: Great app I would like to give it 6 stars, but it doesn't have a tasker plugin. Maybe in the future... |
|
[2012-02-27] A: Issues with T-Mobile myTouch It seems that my phone needed to be rebooted for the landscape on/off to work. Shake feature does not seem to work tho. |
|
[2012-02-27] dirtyjeff: Very Smart Does what it says. Keep up the good work! |
|
[2012-02-26] Sergio: A must have! Congratulations to the developer, an excellent aplication. No need to lock my phone ever again! The pro version is worth the money! |
|
[2012-02-25] Haithem: Awesome app! I really like this app, works perfectly, only one problem which I don't know if it can be solved is that the sensor is a little too sensitive, I keep accidentally triggering it, but other than that this app is amaze, love it |
|
[2012-02-25] Edward: Great App This is great never have to use my button to lock my phone. Thank you!!! |
