Didn't work.

A handy little app for dimming the screen through dithering/half-tones rather than just a transparent black overlay. I love the ability to customise patterns, though I wish there were clear/fill all buttons and/or spaces between the lines as they are very cramped. No ads that I've noticed, and works fine on my old cheap phone even when rotating the screen.

We need an update for android 12(one UI 4). When enabled you can't press anything on screen

Simple, effective, free, without ads and in my opinion one of the best ways to save battery on amoled display.

amazing app. unfortunately android 12 stops it and pretty much any overlay app or emulator. hopefully there will be a fix soon. cheers google.

Is this app still maintained? It hasn't had an update since 2018, so maybe not. Android 12, as we're finding out, is a peculiar beast. Now this fantastic app is unsuable, completely blocking access to the screen. Five stars for legacy awesomeness, zero for current practicability. It's probably a case of Android deciding once again that it needs to impose "security measures" on us ignorant children, but I hope a workaround can be found.

Screen input doesn't work anymore after Pixel 3aXL update to Android 12. Before, this app was perfect for saving my eyes at night but it's now been useless for months!!! Developer, when is this app gonna get fixed?!

Excellent app! Just know your MIUI settings and it'll work like a charm! ❤️

Constantly crashes on Samsung A42 5g. Can never get it to work even after restarting. Don't bother downloading this.

Loved this app on my GS6 & GNU20 until the last update made the app useless as none of the touches would register when the filter is enabled. Could you please fix this? I LOVED THIS APP. SUCH A SHAME.
