Some apps are distributed as Split APKs (multiple .apk files packaged together) to optimize resources. Standard Android installers cannot open them.
- applied new app design
- fixed some bugs
Screen Off & Play allows you to turn off the screen (by displaying a black overlay) while keeping your device and apps fully active. Save battery on both OLED and LCD screens while running your favorite apps!
Perfect for:
- Watching videos or using streaming services with the screen off.
- Running auto-play games without draining battery or overheating.
- Keeping the connection active during large file transfers or downloads.
- Preventing accidental touches while your phone is in your pocket.
How to use:
1. Add the "Screen Off & Play" tile to your Quick Settings panel (swipe down the status bar and edit tiles).
2. Tap the tile while any app is running.
3. The screen turns black, but the app stays active.
4. Simply swipe or use gestures to unlock and return to your app.
** Accessibility Service Disclosure:**
This app uses the Accessibility Service API solely to prevent the current app from being paused while Screen Off & Play is active. No personal data is collected, processed, or shared via this permission. You can revoke this permission at any time in the system settings.

great idea, but some features are not yet complete. display over other apps permission request failed, don't know where to report bugs so...
Works great while using a external monitor. With this app i could just make the screen black (what saves battery, and prevents eventually burn-ins) I just used the quick switch icon when swiping down from status bar. I didn't give it any permissions and yet it still worked (maybe because i just use it on the homescreen, so its not overlaying any apps) Can recommend it.
This is a unique one of a kind app. If you activate it via the Quick Settings Drop-down, it turns the screen off without locking the phone. Drag your finger on the screen, and the screen comes back alive. You will need to edit the Quick Settings Drop-down Menu to make this program's tile visible. If you want a traditional lock screen, you activate this program via the regular menu. This may confuse the user. maybe the author should add an additional regular menu item to turn off the screen ???
You made a really good app, in my opinion. Here is what I want you add to it: The first one is vary simple, just add a backhandler to your code that absorbs the back button input so that it does not exit the app when one accidentally swipe up and click the back button. Whether this is an option to the user or permanent add on is up to you. The second is to add a line against the screen that does the same as the icon in the notification panel.
