Description
Privacy Display is a simple screen dimming tool that helps reduce screen visibility when you tilt your device. It applies a dark overlay to your screen based on motion sensor input, allowing you to quickly lower screen brightness beyond the system minimum.
This app is designed for users who want a quick way to dim their screen in public places or low-light environments.
Features:
• Tilt to Dim – Automatically applies a dark overlay when you tilt your phone left or right. • Adjustable Dim Level – Choose how dark the screen overlay should be. • Sensitivity Control – Adjust tilt sensitivity to match your natural movement. • Quick Toggle – Turn the overlay on or off using a notification shortcut. • Lightweight Design – Minimal battery usage while running in the background.
How It Works:
Privacy Display uses your device’s motion sensors to detect tilt direction. When activated, the app places a dark overlay on top of your screen to reduce visibility. You can customize tilt direction, dim level, and sensitivity in the settings.
Permissions:
• Display over other apps – Required to show the dimming overlay. • Post Notifications – Required to display a persistent notification for quick access to the app.
Privacy Display does not collect personal data and does not access your private content.

★★★★☆James Bell· Jul 2, 2026
It is a good app, but it was a little difficult to set up the setting to my liking. It made the screen to dark or too light. Great concept, just didn't work for my S23
★★★★★qúēén Kk.· Mar 23, 2026

★★★★☆N1GHT· May 7, 2026
Yes it's best for privacy when outside but please add a privacy tempered mode face register if that face registered the person of that face can use his/her phone and if another face not registered identity so that person can't use the phone.
★★★★☆Blaze Greene· Jun 21, 2026
Only works if you tilt it, but it actually works if you turn up the sensitivity up all the way
★★★★☆Sun Rise· May 26, 2026
Its good I like it but bubble opacity % in pattern option does not stay after bubble activation and deactivation or when I move the bubble around the home screen
★☆☆☆☆Troy Petzer· Jun 28, 2026
Terrible app. It just does not work. Even if it did work, users have to tilt the device to dim the phone. The real feature is supposed to dim the brightness without having to tilt it, so from one angle it is dark but looking directly at the screen makes it regular. Bad app, do not download.
★☆☆☆☆Hunain Amjad· May 16, 2026
This app is slow. For privacy, the user has to tilt the mobile phone, whereas it should work in a way that the screen is visible only to the user without tilting the phone and not visible to the person sitting beside them. Secondly, there are too many ads.
★☆☆☆☆Amal Tk· Jul 29, 2026
Just reduce the brightness while tilting left or right, anyone from side can still view what's on your display
★☆☆☆☆SHAURYA Patel· Jul 20, 2026
It works when you move the phone left right but when there is someone sitting with you theu can see this is trash mad app not good at all and the ads are like Elon musk money
