Ratings and reviews

Perfect!! Turns phone screen off when I lay it face down (which covers proximity sensor). It turns back on when I pick it up (which uncovers proximity sensor). Remains off if I intentionally turn device off with physical button (like before putting in my purse). Thanks, dev, for a simple, great & easy to use app! Very responsive, caring & responsible dev! Highly recommend! Samsung Galaxy S5

Been using Gravity Screen for years, but now it's stopped working as reliably and I'm completely addicted to having this function. Tried several similar apps, all could turn screen off, none could turn it on. This one does both! I'm so happy to have found it Edit: A few hours later and I'm going to say this is better than Gravity Screen. Works every time, no fuss, and I like that using the power button temporarily disables it. Fantastic work, dev!

I think it worked to solve the problem of whatsapp annoyingly switching speakers during audio messages playback and holding the phone to the ear. However, the drawback is that the phone's screen is now waken up by the proximity sensor even on lock screen, which I don't want. There should be an option to disable the app when screen is locked.
