About this app

Black Screen lets you play videos with screen off. Turn off the screen anytime and save battery. Black Screen can be used to watch music videos, listen to podcasts, record videos, take selfies, etc. with your screen turned off.

This helps to save battery in AMOLED and OLED devices as the screen is completely off when displaying black color.

Use the floating button to quickly turn off the screen and unlock it by tapping on it.

App Feature List:
• Floating button to quickly lock the screen
• Battery saver on AMOLED & OLED screens
• Play videos, listen to podcasts, record videos, play streams with screen off
• Always-on display option
• Customizable
• Pure black option

Warning: This is not a lock-screen app, it is just a black screen overlay on top of the app you are using. This helps in saving battery on AMOLED devices.

Ratings and reviews

The problem with it not working has gotten worse since my original review, not better! When it works, it's very handy... but the trigger that turns the screen black tends to disappear a lot, forcing me to go to the app to get it back. It would be better if that circle trigger was always available so I could black my screen quickly and with one hand. It's inconvenient to have to go to the app so often.

I'm not 100% sure what this apps purpose is, it creates a black overlay, not so much a screen in literal sense, if you want to practice blind texting then you may find use for it, but if you're looking for something to keep your phone from going crazy in your pocket then this isn't it, as a overlay is just another resource being used while you're screen is very much on.

I paid for youtube premium, it worked well.. Then after quite a few months, it stopped playing on my Samsung lock screen . I tried every trick on videos none worked. In the process I saw several videos for this app. Although I was suspect....Well, it works impeccably every time! Very easy to use and now I highly recommend it. You will not be disappointed! 5 stars for sure. Kudos and thanks to the developers !!
