Ratings and reviews

This is one of the best screen-off apps I have used. It is very simple, lightweight, and does exactly what it promises. I really like that it doesn't show a clock or any extra information—it instantly turns the screen completely black. Perfect for listening to YouTube or music while saving battery. No unnecessary features, just a clean and smooth experience. Highly recommended!

The latest update added a support bar that takes up nearly half the screen, defeating the entire purpose of this app

great idea, but some features are not yet complete. display over other apps permission request failed, don't know where to report bugs so...
