The app icon itself acts as a widget to toggle the filter on/off.
If you set the brightness too low and can't see anything, press the volume buttons to revert back. (Works for settings screen only)
*This app can blackout the screen if you get to 0%, useful for people who like to "listen" to Youtube videos at night with AMOLED screens.

- You can now use the volume buttons for precise adjustment.
- When set to 0%, turning the screen off will automatically pause Screen Filter.
Oct. 25
- Fixed bottom of screen getting cut off on smaller screen phones.

Oct. 21 - [New Feature] If you set the brightness too low, you can now use the volume buttons to revert back.
Oct. 20 - Added Traditional Chinese translations.
Oct. 19 - Initial Release.

Works well except for the part when I set it to to minimum brightness. Perhaps, a little warning pop up would be nice

Hi Aaron, I just pushed an update to address this issue.
You can now use the volume buttons to revert back if you set the brightness too low

Erm. I don't know how to make that work. :/

Try setting the brightness, then after pressing enable, press either volume button. You will see what I mean

Can you upload it normal way, as attachement here, on xdadev?
I read lot of books, and I'd like to use this software, but I won't download it from monopolygoogle site.

Well you ARE using an android device, thats pretty much google's operating system
It would be easier for you to receive updates if you used the play store, as I have been pushing updates quite frequently in the last few days.

Thanks

Great! Hope that the pause bug is fixed, i mean sometimes even if i don't tap the pause button the brightness just go up and then after 5-10sec. the brightness goes down again(the value that i set from the app).

Yup I noticed that happen too.
Turns out I didn't use a service with a high enough priority, so android system was killing the service whenever it felt like it needed more RAM....
I upped the priority in the update, and I haven't encountered any brightness spikes :fingers-crossed:, but I'm guessing it could happen if system was VERY low on RAM

What are the advantages over the original ScreenFilter by haxor industry?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.haxor
Does it suffer from the same "issue" of being unable to press Install while installing an APK? It's a google feature not to be able to hijack the button with an overlay, but it's a bit annoying nonetheless to get blinded when installing apps at night.

I created this app because I wanted the notification controls that the original screen filter didn't have. You can can try the app yourself to see if you find any advantages. It's completely free, even without ads.
Yes, all filter apps suffer the APK install problem. However, the notification controls work pretty well here. Pause it, press install, then resume.

Alright, thanks for your quick reply and honesty.

Is it posible to have an apk file? I don't actually have Play Store on my ROM.

Amazing app. I always use it during the nights cause my screen is way too bright even at the low brightness level. This is the thing which saves my eyes

I am sorry to hear that, but that is just how it is sometimes, especially with multiple roms. Some devices just do not work. I am coming out with a big update later today, but I do not know if it will fix it for you. Update will have total screen control where you can turn on and turn off your screen as well as a new UI.

Thanks!!! :good:
I do have that planned one of these days, I have just been busy lately.
It works on HTC Sensation. For my opinion sensitivity is a bit low. Add function for user to change sensitivity like he want it and system control to disable unlocking if you have it in the pocket.
I was searching for something like this for two days. I have a waterproof case made for d different phone that works great, but no way to access side buttons. Old phone had one, new one does not.
This is great and works on my Samsung Galaxy Exhibit (renamed from Exhibit II by Samsung). Thank you so much, this made my day!
I have delayed the update for a little while longer. Below is a list of what it will include.
Features:
- Refreshed UI
- Ability to turn on screen by shake and turn off screen by icon
- Changeable sensitivity
Sorry for the inconvenience, but I hope to get this ready as soon as possible. Thanks
This is a great idea. It didn't work on my Atrix running CM7, but I'm going to leave it installed and hopefully the update will work.

In the mix of working on this update, I hate to say that I made a HUGE mistake on the wakelock and acquired it in the wrong method. Because of this, you will see some battery drain. Therefore, I have unpublished the app from the market until this update is ready. I am terribly sorry and will get this update out asap!!!! Forgive myself for being a noob.

Don't worry, those things happens when your developing applications and you always find something new after testings. That's why updates are. I'm sure you'll fix it soon.
Tested on huawei mediapad and its not working. Shame, combined with iseeyou app this would have been great.

So, if we just stop it but leave it installed, does it still effect the wakelock and battery drain? I ask since I will get notified when you update, although I guess you will announce it here so we will know?
I have used it far more than I thought I would, great app. Remember Lubarsky's Law of Cybernetic Entomology too.

If you stop the service, the wakelock will be disabled. I just finished doing the fixes on the update. Now I am just testing and checking the battery consumption. It should be available some time today.
And yes, always true

Whenever Google updates their server it will be ready . I'll add another post when it comes up.
Version 1.1 Released
- App title changed to Screen Control
- Refreshed UI
- Ability to turn on/off screen
- Ability to change the sensitivity
- Improved battery life
Enjoy!!!! Let me know if you find some bug, I tried my best to get them all.
I was going to post something about the wake lock but I see you're already on it. Excellent work! I'll download the newest version and post my review later.
Tested the new version on huawei mediapad ics, it works the few minutes after screen is off but often the service will stop and showing the fc message.
Yes, new version 1.1 on my Samsung Galaxy Exhibit (II) 4G will not respond to shake, lags like the cpu is at minimal setting with conservative governor, and then when I get it unlocked, it does an FC. I'll see if I can get a logcat of what is happening. Back to the version 1 (thanks to Titanium Backup) that I can use when I need it only.

Great news everybody TimeSwipe now supports tablets!
I created TimeSwipe as a simple way to use timers in a new intuitive way!
TimeSwipe is easy, fast and reliable. Now with support on all tablet sizes, at least 7" and 10"
Well what does it do and how does it do it?
You can use it as a countdown timer or as a stopwatch. You swipe the seekbars to set a time and press start, and now you have got your self a countdown timer. If you dont set a time by using the seekbars, it will start as a stopwatch. Simple? yeah I know.
The timers run in a foreground service and the timers is visible in the notification bar. If you would turn off your phone, or the app craches (god forbid). Then everything is stored and ready to proceed like nothing ever happend on your next launch.
Feature list:
- Phone and tablet support
- Countdown timer
- Stopwatch
- Get notifications in your status bar
- See current timers in your status bar
- The new Android design on all devices from version 2.3.3 Gingerbread
You got pro?
If you get the pro version (which is awesome) you can save and reuse timers, this is really sweet and well worth 1$, since you support me and the development.
With pro you can start multiple countdown timers and stopwatches at the same time, save them, name them and reuse them. It's also ad free, phew.
You got a widget?
Nope.
But it would be a cool feature to add in the future.
Get the app
Download free version on Google Play here.
This is a lite version of TimeSwipe limited to 1 timer.
Website
Please tell me what you think about it and possible enhancements. I'm up for everything
I'm working on it constantly but at this point I'm starting to need some feedback.
Hope you'll like it

I would post in the new thread but it's not up yet. I've been using this app for a couple days and it works great, clean simple interface and easy to use. I love it. I would like it if in the notification bar the timers could be separated out and not say "two timers running". Also the ability to name them would be awesome. I'm always having to set multiple timers at work and this works great.

I cant post in that forum yet since havent been member that long. But I'm glad you like it and are using it daily
I have thought about showing two notifications when running but it cant be done unless I start up two foreground services, and that wouldn't be good for battery, if its even possible. I'm gonna try a workaround to this because I see the benefit of this feature.
I'm thinking of two renaming options:
1. The ability to set a name on a timer just like that.
2. The ability to save timers (with name) and get some history, though this solution would only work for count-down timers.
Thank you for your feedback, this keeps me going for a while In the next update it's possible to change to the dark theme, gonna be released tonight.
The new theme looks nice :good:. Is it possible to kill the alarm sound like a regular alarm? For example, you set the alarm time to go off for 30 seconds it'll keep ringing no matter what for 30 seconds, even after unlocking the phone and deleting the alarm. Sometimes the default 3 seconds isnt enough since it doesn't loop, and you're not in the room. Or if its in your pocket and it keeps ringing for a long time.

Yeah I know about your concerns and I have tried to figure out a good solution to this. Unfortunate you cant create a alertdialog like the built in alarm, since it has to be inside the app. (You dont want an alarm dialog to popup during a game) but maybe I could view a alertdialog when the user is in the app. Or add a stop alarm button.

New version
Hi all
I have updated TimeSwipe free with a few fixes.
I removed the guide when you run the app for the first time.
The alarm should work better now and you can cancel it if you set an alarm interval greater then 4 seconds. This is also better explained in settings now.
I also added the option to not view the current timer in the notification since this updates the notification every second it can start blinking when used with other apps. So its now possible to disable that feature.
I also did a big updated of the paid version.
You can now save and rename your timers, and its super easy to access them from the side menu so you can reuse the timers over and over again. The fixes in the free version also applies on the paid version.
Hope you like the updates, and please give me feedback.
Btw, do you guys think there should be the same functionality in the free version as in the paid, but with ads? What is a good practice here?
Great news everyone!
I just added tablet support which will work on 7" and 10" displays. I also fixed the layout for phones, or rather, people with big phones
I realy hope you will enjoy TimeSwipe on your tablet as much as on your phone.
Keep me posted with feature requests or bug reports.
I updated the thread with a cool image on a tablet aswell

WARNING:
Using the flash at maximum brightness may cause damage to the flash. The developer of this application is not responsible for any damage caused to your device due to prolonged usage of the flash at a high brightness.
Permissions:
I request and use the following permissions:

Half works on my I9300 but the brightness doesn't coincide with the slider.
For example if I tap it to "full" it's off again and no matter where I tap along the line it goes brighter or dimmer as it pleases
Otherwise, brilliant app! Been liking for exactly this for months!!
Looking forward to updated versions

Permissions question
Thanks for the app.
Can you please explain the need for some of the permissions?
Using Xprivacy, I can see that it requires Location, Network, Phone, Storage and other permissions I would normally not associate with an app like this.

Be careful!
When using this app AND in addition turning the light on with another app, the maximus light will be increased! It seems to me that the values of light will be summed up! So when using only 20 percent of full light, it will be increased up to 120 percent when turning the light on with another app. That is very dangerous!
Another problem for me: The flashlight seems not to be off @0 percent. In an absolute dark room I can see a little glow. Seems to me that the flashlight is not fully turned off at 0 percent.
I hope, someone can confirm my experience and that this little bugs can be solved
This developer needs a double thanks.

@thahim, the purpose of my Application is, that it helps you to use your Smartphone faster by using a service which sets the screen brightness oft your Smartphone to a user choosen minimum and if you Smartphone is in use like in your hand , then the service sets the screen brightness of your Smartphone to a user choosen maximum.
I hope it's clear now, if not you could ASK again

Sorry for that :/
But yeah let's try it out
I think this app automatically switches ur screen ON when u take up the phone and its elevated in the angle u give in the app and also the birghtness of the screen is changed based on ur inpu. Good Thought. Nice app. but there are many such apps already in playstore. But well done OP.

Great job
The new Design in ISM is really beautiful. Especially the app icon looks great on my 5.0 nav drawer
I'm using this app since 1 month and it's really usefull to save my battery life on my Oppo Find 7a.
But I'm still waiting on the feature, to auto unlock the device by holding it in the hand.
Great job!
Works great. Thanks.

No. Notification run mode foreground to maintain service don't kill. You can don't need enable it but when you kill app, it need a few second to initialize service after you can use key volume.
amazing
It is very useful thanks

Hi.
Great app, thanks!
Thank you.
Sorry. I don't know reason why!. I have only Xperia M to test app now .
I think you can use Rom CyanogenMod, it will support for you this function and many interesting function .
Sorry, but 100%-of-time wake lock is no go
Can't get widget to stick on the dock, must be something with Lollipop, I have other widgets that I can add, this one keep popping back to the home screen. Thanks for trying.

Widget can't stick on dock. I created one shortcut "Screen Off" name to can Screen Off phone. You can stick it on dock . Please check again help me. Thanks.
Thank you.
Version 1.3.1
Optimizing battery.
File setup updated post #1.
That works... thanks, now... I use smartlock with my lollipop and smartwatch, can you make it so it only turns off the screen and just waits for the screen to lock on it's own? The reason I ask is if I use the button on the dock, it locks the phone similar to tapping the padlock on the home screen so I have to pin in even with the smart phone connected.
I was so excited when I saw this app. my N5 is rooted but is still stock 5.01 this wake up with volume key was one of the features that I really miss from custom roms. I been using it for about 2 days now and my battery life has been just okay so this morning I took a look at my battery stats and saw that this app was at 10% use over night. that was more then google services or my display combined. maybe its my set up or something but the battery uses was too high for me so I just uninstalled. I really hope this app is working better for others tho. sorry, but I wish I’ve taken a screenshot.

Yes, on initial install my battery consumption went up about 12 % on Lollipop typically in the morning after changing I have 96 to 97% this morning it was 84%. There were some optimizations in this last version so I will test again.
Noticed in CPU spy the phone is staying awake @ 300 Mhz for 12 hours, this is likely the reason for the drain
The phone doesn't enter DEEP SLEEP with this app...
