Description
Decrease screen brightness below minimum level, by turning off individual pixels. This way the screen contrast is kept at the same level. Save battery on newer AMOLED screens - they will turn off black pixels completely. Tap app icon 3 times to show settings dialog. Includes screen pattern editor. Screen pattern is shifted each 5 minutes to prevent uneven pixel wear-out. This app has limited functionality on Android 7 and newer, it cannot dim system buttons and notification area, because of new security model in Android 7.

This app is very good, although if it used the accessibility options to be able to screen filter above everything on above android 7 that would be great
★★★★★
App that every android user should download for oled displays. Its saves battery and display from burn in. Just can tell how happy I was to get an app like this. It keeps the screen brightness output low by turning off half of the pixels while still having benefits of high brightness level like color accuracy and less pwm
★★★★★
A must need app for amoled. I think this is great cuz it helps amoled phones prevent screen burn. The only problem is it doesn't work around the notif bar
★★☆☆☆
When active I can't go into any application, when swiping up to see open apps I can't scroll or go into an open app. No matter which app I try to open it doesn't work, but the filter works.
★★☆☆☆
Great......if you don't want to be able to use your phone. Disabled touch. So your screen will definitely be darker and save you battery, but you won't be able to use anything until you disable this. Not a well-thought-out or tested app
★★☆☆☆
This app consumes battery on its own, battery usage dropped after disabling pixel filter
