This app is very good. Just by pressing the button, I csn put the screen off. Saves little battery and pressing of power button not required. In my new mobile a message comes as finger sensors and face will not work . ANY SUGGESTION TO MAKE IT WORK.

FINALLY FULLY UNINSTALLED...If you uninstalled this app and you duoble tap and it brings you back to the play store its probably because your using a launcher like nova launcher. If you are? then you probably had the screen off app as your double tap gesture? if you did you will need to change it to none. Btw double tap still works if you go back to your stock launcher! Sadly nova doesn't have a built in double tap gesture. there is a slower workaround just google NL double tap to sleep 1st link

This App doesn't work on latest mobiles like Samsung M and A series. Have been using this app for more than a year in older phone. Noticed that finger print and face recognition doesn't work when locked with this app in new phone. Mobile will ask for pin or pattern to unlock phone. Pls rectify this issue i will once again install this App.

It does what it says it does but takes longer than I thought it would to turn off the screen. A few seconds but I had similar app that took less than a second. Made me wonder why this app took so long. What else is it doing? Also, really difficult to uninstall. Had to deactivate the app 6 times before it successfully uninstalled.

I have uninstalled this app in a previous phone yet the setting somehow persistent because nemow in a new phone and new Android version, double tapping the screen says "app isn't installed" and it brings me to the Play Store to reinstall. I want to get rid of it completely. not giving it device admin rights does not do the trick :-(

Used to be great. The app is no longer up to date with accessibility service. If you use the app to turn off the screen you can't use biometrics to unlock the phone. I've emailed the developer but haven't received a reply.

Must have saved across a million power button pressed, across 3 devices. Using this app for years now. Disadvantage - If u lock using this, the fingerprint sensor doesn't unlock the phone immediately, u also need to enter the password again. Not a big problem for me, but others, Watch out, this can irritate! Totally Satisfied with this app!

best I've found, perfect for my Android 5, the version my comments apply to. Things in newer Androids changed; may prevent this from working. Are comparably good alternatives for newer Androids. This requires no special permissions, is open source, has nice customization settings. Does 1 thing only & that's good. I don't want/ need unrelated features like: flashlight; assignability to other buttons or to appear in notifications; be floating widget; require unneeded permissions etc.

This app requires access to my media files and contacts. Why? There's no need for a simple app just to turn off the screen to access any of this. It's just over the top intrusion!

I don't what this app does, but it doesn't lock my screen. Either it just does nothing or it needs instructions. I've uninstalled the app and now I have a floating button for it that does nothing, but I can't get rid of it. It may be that the app hasn't been updated for recent Android versions. I am using Android 11.
