Game Mode - Play Quietly

Game Mode is a game launcher that sets your phone up for each game and puts it back when you return. It also tracks your game collection and keeps your own notes for every game you play.

YOUR GAMES
• All your installed games and apps in one list, games first, with quick search
• Pin favourites; recently played games get their own row
• Phone status at a glance: battery and temperature, thermal state, free memory, refresh rate and connection time to Google DNS

PER-GAME SETUP
Long-press a game to choose what changes while it runs:
• Do Not Disturb: Off, Alarms only, or Priority only
• Brightness, media volume, and a 30-minute screen timeout
Or switch on "Do Not Disturb while playing" once for every game.

NEW: COLLECTIONS AND BACKLOG
• Keep several collections, one per shelf, console or wishlist
• Add any game by name, on any platform: status (Backlog, Playing, Finished, Dropped), what it is worth today, and every purchase and sale
• See the total value of what you own and what you paid
• Lent a game to a friend? Note who has it and since when
• Export a PDF or CSV report, or share your list with purchase prices hidden

NEW: GAME COMPANION
For any game, your own:
• Progress counters (level, chapters, collectibles) with an overall progress ring
• Checklists for bosses, quests and trophies
• A notes database with categories and search
• Builds, slot by slot, to copy and share
• Your map images with pins on what you found
You write it all; Game Mode ships no game data.

GAME HUD
• A floating panel over your game, full or compact: session time, battery and temperature, free memory, latency and refresh rate. It cannot show a game's frame rate (no app can) and does not change how the game runs.

SESSION REPORT
• After each game: play time, and battery, temperature, memory and latency from start to end

NETWORK CHECK
• Latency, jitter and loss to Google DNS
• Wi-Fi vs 4G/5G side by side
• Connection time to 13 server regions, to pick a region in a game's settings
It measures only; it cannot change your connection.

TEST KIT
• Touch: fingers, touch events per second and a grid that shows dead spots
• Display: refresh rates, resolution and a dead-pixel check

QUICK ACCESS
• Home-screen shortcut that opens a game with its setup applied
• Quick Settings tile for "Do Not Disturb while playing"
• Play time today and in the last 7 days, per game

BEFORE THE GAME OPENS
On Android 13 and earlier, Game Mode can ask Android to close your other apps' background processes first and shows how much memory was freed. Android 14 and later do not allow this, so only the launch animation plays.

Everything Game Mode changed is restored when you return to it. Alarms still ring while Do Not Disturb is on.

WHAT GAME MODE DOES NOT DO
It does not speed up games, raise frame rates or lower game ping. It only changes the settings you choose, does not read your notifications and does not use an Accessibility service. Your collections and notes stay on your phone.

Recent changes:
New in 1.4: a fresh neon look. Collections: track your games, their value, purchases and sales, games lent out, and export a PDF or CSV report or share it with prices hidden. Game Companion: progress counters, checklists, a notes database, builds and your own maps with pins, for any game.
