Black Screen enables viewing videos with the screen off to conserve battery. It is ideal for activities like watching music videos, listening to podcasts, recording videos, or taking selfies without draining the battery.

The app's main advantage lies in its functionality on AMOLED and OLED devices, where displaying black color completely turns off the screen.

Users can conveniently activate the screen-off mode using a floating button, which can be unlocked by tapping it.

Key features include:

- Floating button for quick screen lock

- Battery saving capability for AMOLED & OLED displays

- Video playback, podcast listening, video recording, streaming with screen off

- Option for an always-on display

- Customization possibilities

- Pure black display option

Important: Black Screen is not a lock-screen app; rather, it serves as a black overlay while using other apps, particularly beneficial for saving battery power on AMOLED screens.

Using Guide

Ideal for AMOLED and OLED screens, this utility shines when displaying pure black, which consumes less power. Users benefit from a convenient floating button for quick screen shut-off, facilitating smooth, uninterrupted enjoyment of music videos, podcasts, or live streams.

It's crucial to understand that this utility is not a lock-screen replacement. It serves as a black screen overlay, ensuring that media consumption doesn't drain your battery.

    Hey there, I really like this app, but there's one thing that keeps bugging me. Sometimes, with just a few taps on the screen, it lights up unexpectedly. And you know what? It happens quite often especially when I'm on the go and have my phone tucked away in my pocket while enjoying a YouTube video or a podcast. It would be super cool if you could add a different way to unlock the screen, like swiping from left to right or even drawing a specific shape like a square, a star, or a triangle. This would be a nice alternative to just having to tap the screen a certain number of times. Thank you!

    You're welcome! The app is designed to help conserve power by turning off the video when not needed. It stays on top of other apps, so whether you're watching something on YouTube or using another app, the screen will go black until you touch it to resume.

    This app gets rid of ads well, except for one at the bottom when you open it. The app is good overall. However, after an update, the user interface has become disappointing. It now takes up more space and feels cramped compared to before. Before, there was only one button and three checkboxes below. My suggestion is to shift the customization below the checkboxes and make it collapsible. Donezo!

    Great! This app is awesome because it does exactly what you need it to. At work, we can use headphones but can't watch videos. Sometimes, when you put your phone in your pocket, the videos start playing accidentally, like comedy specials. This app prevents that from happening, which is amazing!
