Edit: I was wrong, the Power Off Dialog setting has no side effect, I just pressed too short - I think you should document that one needs not depress before one sees it lock/open, and empathize that it won't cause force-poweroff ;) Also, could you make the time required to be adjustable? I promised a good review if the paid version works without failing in long listening time, and it so far seems to. I couldn't get the shake to work, but I never rely on shaking anyway, and it's likely 'cos my phone is damaged. You should improve is documenting settings clearer. THANKS <3

Superb app. I listen to a lot of online radio shows on YT and I can get a full day on one charge using this app. Galaxy A7 running Android 8. For those having problems here is what I do: open Chrome, tap 3 dots and tick Use Desktop Site, go to YT. Com, select video, once it loads press the phone Home key, video stops, pull down display from top of screen, and you will see audio buttons, press play and video will run, you can now press Power button to kill the screen and listen to audio.

Totally didn't work on my Galaxy S8, refunded in no time. Just wanted it for screen dimming Netflix, I'll just use the trusty blue light filter and Twilight combo from now on.
