About this app

idle — your screen, at rest.

Turn your charging phone into a beautiful, burn-in-proof bedside clock. idle launches automatically when you plug in and closes when you unplug. No ads. No subscriptions. No
account needed.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

PROTECTS YOUR SCREEN

Most clock apps destroy OLED screens. idle is different. A GPU-powered pixel-shift shader continuously moves every pixel in a subtle orbit pattern — invisible to your eye, but
enough to prevent burn-in completely. Your phone stays safe, even overnight.

BEAUTIFUL CLOCK FACES

• 5 premium fonts at maximum weight for a bold, chunky look
• Overlapping bubble digits with soft ambient glow
• 5 solid colors: white, red, green, blue, amber
• Per-digit multicolor mode inspired by Apple Watch Palette
• 5 curated gradient palettes: Solar Flare, Aurora, Midnight Nebula, Oceanic Dawn, Twilight Ember
• Glowing colon separators with color-matched halos
• Date display with multiple format options

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

SMART BRIGHTNESS

idle reads your room's ambient light and adjusts screen brightness automatically. In a dark bedroom, the screen dims to near-minimum. Touch the brightness slider anytime to
override.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

WORKS LIKE MAGIC

• Plug in your charger → idle launches (when screen is off or locked)
• Unplug → idle closes
• Works with USB-C, wireless Qi, and any charger
• Displays over the lock screen — no unlock needed
• Follows your phone orientation — portrait or landscape
• Survives device restarts

HANDLES ANDROID BATTERY KILLERS

Samsung, Xiaomi, Huawei, and other manufacturers aggressively kill background apps. idle detects your device manufacturer and guides you through the exact settings you need to
change — with one-tap deep links to the right page. Green checkmarks confirm when each step is done.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

RESPECTS YOUR PRIVACY

• No account, no sign-up
• No ads, not now, not ever
• No personal data collected
• Works fully offline
• Anonymous telemetry only (can be disabled)

Every feature is free. No paywalls. No "premium" tier. If you enjoy idle, there's an optional tip jar in settings — purely voluntary, unlocks nothing.

REQUIRES
