About this app

Black Screen lets you play videos with screen off. Turn off the screen anytime and save battery. Black Screen can be used to watch music videos, listen to podcasts, record videos, take selfies, etc. with your screen turned off.

This helps to save battery in AMOLED and OLED devices as the screen is completely off when displaying black color.

Use the floating button to quickly turn off the screen and unlock it by tapping on it.

App Feature List:
• Floating button to quickly lock the screen
• Battery saver on AMOLED & OLED screens
• Play videos, listen to podcasts, record videos, play streams with screen off
• Always-on display option
• Customizable
• Pure black option

Warning: This is not a lock-screen app, it is just a black screen overlay on top of the app you are using. This helps in saving battery on AMOLED devices.

This app is excellent, it let's you have the option to turn on lock for example fingerprint or password. so no one can access your phone if you have this app activated, obviously there's ways you could unlock your phone by avoiding the password or fingerprint options but for the people that have never used this app they wouldn't know how. Anyways excellent app.

This won't run for me. As I install, an ad comes up that can never be cleared. I backed out and retired 10x or so. Infuriating.

this may be one of the best time reducing softwares I've ever used, my daily screen time went from 7 hours to to less than 2 hours, and this instantly made a significant impact in my social life and academics, this is a must use for phone addicted users. this app is also a must if you want to listen to YouTube tutorials without having to constantly clicking it so that it doesn't turn off automatically and pause, this app just allows u to keep it playing while your phone saves battery.
