🌈 RGB LIGHTING which fades through different hues. You have to see it to believe how amazing it looks. Gives the design a modern aesthetic.

🟰 SYMMETRICAL CLOCK ensures the clock is moving only along the vertical axis for perfect symmetry yet avoiding any chances of burn in. Helping prolong the life of your screen.

Optional way to use the app is to add a Blackr button in the quick tile settings in device status bar (near wifi, bluetooth, etc). It works seamlessly any time!

App works by displaying a black overlay on top of the screen and on most modern displays black pixels are turned completely off, effectively turning the display off.

Technically, it is an overlay and your phone is not sleeping while this is on. So power reduction is mostly from less or no screen usage, and helpful to prevent screen burn in.

💫 Works best on OLED screens like AMOLED, PMOLED, QD-OLED and similar display technologies that switch off any pixel displaying true black. App will still work on any display though.

Runs optimal on devices like Google Pixel, Samsung Galaxy, Samsung Fold and Flip, OnePlus and more. Any device with OLED display will work great and just as intended.

Can also be used to reduce any burn-in on screens, as we change the lit pixels every minute, it acts as a good screen reset.

🏅 This app can be used in many scenarios like recording long videos, watching YouTube, Netflix, Prime video, etc. with screen off or streaming videos while listening to music only.

Moreover, users find it quite useful in keeping screen on or off manually rather than using the lock button during frequent use. The application is usable in countless scenarios.
