Timed Shutdown [No Root]

About this app

Are you used to turning off your phone before going to sleep and want to listen to some relaxing music?
With this app, you won't have to move your sore arms and fingers, you can just set a timer, and the phone will turn off after a while!

Android does not have any simple way to power off the phone without root, so the best we can do is emulate the manual gestures used to shut down the phone. To do this, the app will use the accessibility permission, but it will not register any user's data.

This app is not professional and it's just a side-project of mine that I decided to share with everyone. If you want to contribute or check the code, it can all be found on my github (github.com/maforn). Any help is more than welcome!

Ratings and reviews

I was already searching for some time for a 'shutdown app' and finally found one... Before falling a sleep, I always listen to some music. I set the timer on xx minutes and it automatically shutdowns my smartphone completely ... Perfect ! It took me some time to figure it out to set it up. But reading the information, it makes sense. Using the app for a week and it just do it's job. Thx again !

Thank you for this imaginative and elegant app! Works perfectly when phone is in vertical mode. But my use case (Galaxy S8 as a nightstand media player) is horizontal and even though the power buttons are in the right positions, the first but works but it doesn't seem to accept the final shutdown action when a video is playing full screen. It will work in vertical mode, however. My Pixel 7a doesn't have the same issue - a single press action is all that's required to shutdown.

Wow. At last. I have tried all the other apps and methods out there for trying to get my Doogee V20 Pro to restart in the small hours. Nothing worked. At all. But this little gem is perfect. Unbelievably simple to set up - whether using a countdown timer to shutdown or selecting days (and times) of the week for it - and flawless. If it ceases to function at any stage then I will look to update this review (depending on dev feedback) but, for now, I wholeheartedly recommend this SUPER app.
