About this app

Privacy Curtain helps to guard your private content in public. It lets you use your phone confidently by covering your screen with digital Curtain. You can personalize it with your favorite colors or with provided textures and also you can set the level of transparency according to your liking. You can combine both color and texture to get different tint in every texture.

It is very easy to use. You just have to open the app and click start button, that's pretty much it. A floating shortcut icon will appear which you can drag and place anywhere on screen. Tapping on it will activate the Curtain which you can drag up or down to resize according to your need. It has lock option to lock on some specific height to avoid accidental touches. It comes with phone call awareness means It will minimize during Phone Calls so that it will not cover the call UI.

It is a custom-built tool means you can customize everything from main curtain to floating shortcut icon. It offers different colors, different transparency levels and different textures so the possibilities of customization is endless. You can set different avatars for shortcut icon and you can use your own image as well. Shortcut icon fades when idle to reduce distractions.

Ratings and reviews

Looks great. Works smoothly. And it reacts smoothly to any changes to its size. I can't figure out how to adjust the top of the cover though. I wanted to hide something in the bottom of my screen, but I could only cover that if I covered everything on my screen. It would also be nice if we could adjust its size on the left and right size too. But if the size can be changed from the top then I think it's definitely worth the 5 stars! (Well, 4.5*, but I can't give that ;-) )

The interface is nice and polished, and the application offers a nice range of options for patterns. Unfortunately, there is no option to interact with content hidden by the curtain, as it intercepts touch control. It would be really nice if it could pass these controls through. Edit: I know it's used for resizing the curtain, but in the "locked" state the touch interception is not necessary.

Thank you for making this app ad-free. Three points: the curtain is 50% translucent at 100% opacity, you can't cover the bottom of the screen without covering everything as another review pointed out, and you can't move the activation button to the horizontal center points of the screen (top and bottom centers). I look forward to seeing further development on this project. It's a good idea and is well executed.

Minor Other Optimizations
Note: (i) Whitelist the app from Battery Optimizations if app closes automatically while in background
(ii) Curtain will be slightly less opaque in locked mode due to Android 12 restrictions but in Extended Opacity Mode you can increase opacity at the expense of touch pass-through.
