About this app

Turn Off Screen — the easiest way to switch off your phone's display.

Just one tap on the launcher icon and your screen goes off, instantly. No menus, no settings, no fuss.

KEY FEATURES
• One-tap screen off from the home launcher icon
• Long-press the icon for a quick "Send a tip" shortcut
• Tiny app size
• Works on Android 6.0 and later
• Available in 20 languages

HOW IT WORKS
The app uses Android's Device Administrator permission to lock your screen the same way the power button would. You grant the permission once during setup.

SUPPORT THE DEVELOPER
Turn Off Screen is built and maintained by an independent developer. If you find it useful, open the About screen and send a small, medium, or large tip via Google Play. Every tip helps keep the project alive.

HOW TO UNINSTALL
Because the app uses Device Administrator, uninstalling takes 2 steps:
1. Open Settings → Security (or "Location & security") → Device administrators → uncheck "Turn Off Screen".
2. Uninstall the app as usual.

Thanks for using Turn Off Screen!

Installed the app, clicked open and it request admin, accepted, clicked open and my screen locks. Added the app to my home screen and when I click it, it locks the phone. No issues thus far, no ads, no pop ups, just works.

EDIT: There's a bug. Sometimes after shutting off screen the lock will be disabled. I'm uninstalling. I leave the original review below for if this bug is ever fixed. --- Does one thing only and absolutely nothing else - and for that reason only takes up 0.068 MB. It turn off the screen; that's it. My phone doesn't have fingerprint scanner, so I can't say if that works or not. But for those people who complain that it's hard to uninstall I must disaggree; it's just a little complicated because of the way it has to lock into Android to work. For those that think the icon is too hard to see though; I aggree. But since I have linked the app up to one of my hardware buttons, I don't need the icon to be pretty :-) Thanks!
