KinScreen App DESCRIPTION

Do you find yourself poking your screen to keep it from turning off? Want to turn your screen on without the power button? KinScreen automatically keeps your screen on while you’re using your phone, but turns it off more quickly when you aren’t to save battery power.

Please check www.dontkillmyapp.com to make sure KinScreen is able to run in the background!

Brief Overview
• Turn screen on
– with a wave
– by tilting up

• Turn screen off
– by covering screen (pocket, face down)
– by tilting down

• Keep screen on
– while holding phone (motion or tilt)
– by waving over screen
– while using specific apps
– while on a call
– while charging
– manually via widget, QuickSettings, or notification toggle
• Set a separate timeout for the lock screen
• Set a maximum time to keep the screen on
• Works in the dark unlike Samsung’s Smart Stay
• No ads

Originally released in 2014, KinScreen is continually being improved based on user feedback and feature requests.

Install now and forget about keeping your screen on! Once you understand its capabilities, you will immediately notice it missing on a new device!

Customer service is a top priority at TEQTIC. If you experience an issue, please use the “Contact support” menu option inside the app or email kinscreen@teqtic.com before leaving a negative review! We usually reply to all emails within 48 hours, and often much quicker.

Detailed Overview
Turn screen on with gestures
Save the wear and tear on your power button by using gestures to turn the screen on. You can turn the screen on via the proximity sensor or by lifting the device up. Uncovering the proximity sensor lets you pull your phone out of your pocket and have the screen turn on automatically. Waving over the sensor works great when your hands are dirty! You may also set a tilt angle that turns the screen on when the phone is lifted up (tilt to wake).

Keep screen on automatically
Choose from various methods that detect use of the device and keep the display on. The motion method detects small movements from you just holding the device. Waving over the proximity sensor is another way to keep your screen on, and optionally extends the timeout. The tilt angle method allows the display to stay on when propped up, even when you aren’t holding it. You can also choose to have the display stay on while using chosen apps, while charging, or while on a call (display still turns off when you put the phone to your ear).

Time screen out quickly to save battery
You can choose the screen timeout when there are no keep-on functions actively keeping the screen on. If the screen isn’t being kept on, it should time out quickly to save battery power. The screen can turn off even quicker when the proximity sensor is covered (in-pocket or face down), or when the device is pointed down. You can also set a separate timeout for the lock screen. KinScreen will not turn the screen off when other apps are keeping the screen on, unless you have selected to actively turn the screen off.

Resource Use
KinScreen is designed to be as efficient and battery friendly as possible. It uses minimal CPU and memory, and sensor use is highly optimized. Some functions use more power than others. Turn-on-by-tilt-angle will use significant battery power because it needs to keep the device awake in order to work.

Premium Version
All functions are highly customizable to your taste. Fine-tuning of numerical parameters is locked in the free version. Please upgrade to premium to fully unlock all customization, and support future development!

Sensitive Permissions
The Accessibility Service permission is optional and only used to actively turn the screen off. Information provided by the Accessibility Service is not collected or shared in any way.

Red-green color deficiencies test
The Ishihara test is a color perception test for red-green color deficiencies, the first in a class of successful color vision tests called pseudo-isochromatic plates. It was named after its designer, Dr. Shinobu Ishihara, a professor at the University of Tokyo, who first published his tests in 1917.The test consists of a number of colored plates, called Ishihara plates, each of which contains a circle of dots appearing randomized in color and size. Within the pattern are dots which form a number or shape clearly visible to those with normal color vision, and invisible, or difficult to see, to those with a red-green color vision defect. Other plates are intentionally designed to reveal numbers only to those with a red/green color vision deficiency, and be invisible to those with normal red/green color vision. The full test consists of 38 plates, but the existence of a severe deficiency is usually apparent after only a few plates. There is also an Ishihara test consisting 10, 14 or 24 test plates.The plates make up several different test designs:Demonstration plate (plate number one, typically..

App REVIEWS

Spunktas..

I like being able to keep my screen on, it is very handy when on loudspeaker calls, but every other day it disappears from the bar at the top of my screen. If I could keep it there, open, permanently, I would definitely give it 5 stars, but since it's irritating having to keep finding and opening it again... 😫 Edited: Thanks for the reply. My apologies for assuming it was the app, I've adjusted my settings now and hopefully it will stay on. Thanks for your advice. 😊

JESSE

"UNINSTALL"... it's a good reason why I had to remove this APP... Not only did this APP drained my battery daily, it also kept raising the temperature on my device constantly, I was thinking it was another APP heating my phone up but it wasn't at all, it was this APP KinScreen raising the temperature on my device which effected everything!

Please write to us for help Jesse! You can reach us at kinscreen@teqtic.com or by using the in-app "Contact support" menu option. KinScreen is very efficient and should not be doing this but we can look into it based on your settings.

Guest

A good and even better alternative to Gravity Screen, which started to behave strangely on the latest versions of Android. I supported the developer of KinScreen by purchasing a lifetime license. Keep up the good work.

Andrew

KinScreen is one of the go-to apps I load on any Android device I use. It's just that useful. The developer is also responsive to support requests so reach out if you need it. I made that review back in 2019 and I still stand by it in 2022.
----------
Thank you for the kind review Andrew! I hope you enjoy KinScreen for a long time to come.

Jean

It does keep the screen on during speaker phone calls which is the reason i download it for BUT the problem is that it overrides the 1 minute screen timeout on my phone if you are not in a call. So if your screen is idle it will turn it off in like 20secs. That is ridiculous and I have not found anything in the settings to change that option.
----------
Please write to us for help Jean! You can reach us at kinscreen@teqtic.com or by using the in-app "Contact support" menu option. You need to set your desired timeout within KinScreen, under "Time screen out... xx sec after last kept on".

Aniruddh..

Great app and I've been using it for a very long time now. But since the last update, it's consuming a crazy amount of battery - around 25-30% on an average! Will up the rating once this issue is fixed.
----------
Please write to us for help Aniruddha! You can reach us at kinscreen@teqtic.com or by using the in-app "Contact support" menu option. Nothing in the latest update should have caused this.

Dani

Works on Android 10! After updating my OS my old wake lock toggle stopped working. After trying a few other apps and browsing some forums I heard about this app and it's the first one I've tried that works on Android 10. Thank you!!! Update: Thanks for the reply. Of course! Update: works perfectly on Android 12, also! Still a staple for me!

SimbiAni

Love this app! Can you please add a "keep screen OFF" section?? Or option, so that it can prevent the screen from waking upon every notification.. since currently the only alternative seems to be disabling ALL notifs & I don't want that, lol. Rather just let the screen sleep thru them, until whenever I next pick up / handle the device.
----------
Please write to us for help Simbi! You can reach us at kinscreen@teqtic.com or by using the in-app "Contact support" menu option. Unfortunately it's not possible for an app to prevent other apps or the system from turning the screen on. Have you had a look through your system settings to see if there's an option for this?

Roger

Great Replacement for Gravity Screen, but I HATE that it overrides your screen time out setting and won't let you change it via other methods. Please turn that feature off, as I sometimes want my screen on longer (temporarily) than my normal default, and now I can't quickly change that on the fly. There's no reason this app needs to control that setting.
----------
Please email us for help Roger! You can reach us at kinscreen@teqtic.com or by using the in-app "Contact support" menu option. KinScreen dynamically changes that setting as part of the way it works. You can set it to what you need within KinScreen under "Time screen out... xx sec after last kept on".

Guest

It's a great little app. Does what it says and doesn't crash or have to be constantly restarted. Hint: I had to calibrate the motion sensor by putting it on a table and walking by so that it would keep the screen on when I set it down in certain places. It calibrates to acceptable motion, and I wanted a little. I never have to tap my screen to keep it on. Ever! But does shut it off after the timeout if there isn't any motion.

Dee

I just got a Galaxy Note 8 that was essentially brand new but refurbished. The screen won't stay on no matter what I do. Apparently this is a common problem with Samsung phones. I called Samsung support and their fix worked but only temporarily. So I googled it and found people had success with KinScreen so I downloaded it. So far it works great! There are a lot of settings, which I haven't bothered to mess with. But my screen now stays on until I turn it off! I am very happy with it!

It's perfect for my wallet case: closed - screen off, open - screen on, with great control settings. I'd used another app for years, but lost a few features when I recently upgraded my phone. After using KinScreen for about a week, it's done everything I was hoping it would. I just tweaked a couple of settings (after realizing how I wanted it to work) and I'm very impressed. Thanks, guys!

Rob

I had so problems setting on my new phone with screen time outs. Samung s20 had issues with the screen dimming down after 20 secs to the default setting. I tried changing settings. After a short time it was back to the default time out. Going through all the settings I could find made no difference. The phone defaulted back every time.. Ringing Samsung support wasn't much help as I watched them repeating the same process and giving up. This phone was one day out of the box. So in finding that the Kinscreen app may have a better chance of success. I tried the trial version. As soon as it was installed and I changed a few settings..It worked, success! Now I have the full app and it has worked for me since with the chance of me setting time out's longer than 20 sec. BRILLIANT APP Flaviu!! THANK YOU. Highly recommend for anyone who just needs to get something right with their phone. Now works better than the original phone settings. Excellent

Couldn't use my tablets or smartphone, without the screen shutting off every minute. Downloaded Kinscreen, used the drop down notifications to activate the app, customizing my options using the settings menu. And, BOOM! Screen stays on as long as I like. There are a myriad of options to chose from, so you can customize your Smartphone screen visibility to whatever works for you. Has worked on my phone and tablets flawlessly, for months. Thx devs.

Great app for controlling screen time out. My friend's new Note 10 fades to black when she's on speaker phone. Makes it awkward when you have to pick up the phone to turn it on so the number pad can be used. I like the ability to temporarily turn the screen on with a widget so it doesnt blank out when I'm watching video. Many other options for controling the screen. Great app.

At first install the app didn't work as expected, this was very frustrating after trying several others without success. I decided to contact this company to see if they could assist me; the response was quick and their solution solved my issue. This software now works as expected with many other options to control my screen. Great App highly recommend.

The best Screen Off app I have ever used...and I have used many over the years. Excellent support as well. What I like about this app is that I can keep the screen from turning off through the default timeout settings when I am using it, even in the dark. I can keep the phone keypad active whenever I need to. I use this app with my Galaxy Note 9 and a leather folder-type case. As soon as I open the folder lid, the screen becomes active. No more pressing the power button. When I close the cover, the screen times out. As a previous programmer, I appreciate the small file size and the very small utilization of system resources. This app can save battery power by wasted screen on-time. I would recommend purchasing the upgrade to be able to access the locked features (which were more customizable than I realized) and to support the developer who shows he's listening to our requests and/or questions.

needed to keep my lock screen on for an extended period of time (5s default) because I had an animated lock screen that was pretty cool. worked like a charm. Default app setting is 10s, but if u get the lifetime version you can set it to whatever you want. It has a few more options that are pretty nice to change, but like I said, for what I wanted it served it's purpose.

This does EXACTLY what I want it to do.. Keep my display on when I'm looking at my lockscreen. I have a video theme, and the display would always timeout after 5 seconds, and I wouldn't be able to see the awesome theme I just purchased... But now this app forced it to stay on. Which is exactly what I wanted! Fantastic! Thank you! . Not to mention, it has a ton of other useful features too.. Like, if I turn my display off/lock up my phone, it would always turn back on by itself when I got near it, and eat up valuable battery... Now I can make it so it stays dark always, unless I physically press a button. It disables the proximity sensor.. So ya, double awesome!

I used Screebl for a long time, but it hasn't been supported in years. Now, it no longer works in Android Pie. Time for a replacement. I want it stay on while I'm using it and turn off, when I'm done. KinScreen is the Swiss Army knife for ways to keep the screen on. The free version is great. I splurged on the paid version to tweak the settings. Thanks for the very useful app.
