After a great success of ProximtyScreenOffLite (more than 68,000 downloads) I decided to take all the feedback and feature requests by users and improve the features and quality of the app.
Pro Features:
Pocket/Flip or Smart Cover Mode: Turns screen OFF when sensor covered and ON when uncovered. (Feature requested by Galaxy Note users)
Turn Screen On/Off with following gestures:
Swipe Once,
Swipe Twice,
Swipe and Hold,
Hold and Swipe and
Cover and Hold
Ignore Apps list: Add the apps/games where you want to disable the service
Widget: to start and stop the service
ScreenOff shortcut: to turn off the screen by launching the app.
Sensor Configuration : Based on your device select the sensor of your choice, or the one that's available and configure their values, as they are different for different devices.
Enable screen on/off during calls only
Disable call handling completely
Battery saving options: De-Activate sensors after timeout and De-Activate sensors when power button pressed or system goes idle.
Override power button and screen-on by other apps (Phone is in pocket and you get a call or you accidentally press the power button, screen will remain off)
Prevent accidental screen on
Vibration on screen On/Off
Tips on using Light sensor for tablets/phones
Value when sensor covered
Tip: if you choose light Sensor and if you vales range from 0 to >50, keep this at around 15 (Use the charts to see what values sensors give out)
Value when sensor un-covered
Tip: if you choose light Sensor and if you vales range from 0 to >50, keep this at around 16

Can't you provide us XDA Members a PRO version for free? Like the awesome dev of SetCPU, you can still leave it on Google Play as PAID version, but at least here in XDA it would be great to avail it, Even for a Limited time, That would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your hard work!

Yes this would be great! I can't buy things on Play Store.
I ve used it but sometimes it just picks up the phone while in my pocket lol. Any sale(discount) out for this ?
Galaxy Note manages this situation itself fine:
screen goes off when you pick up the call and put phone to ear, and it goes on when you remove (without hanging the phone) if you need to turn on loudspeaker or something else
accidental call pickup probability on GNote is practicaly zero: you have to swipe to pickup call...
otherwise, I can lock my phone (and turn of display) by pushing power button, easily, if not, screen goes off after specified time
so for this app gives few second benefits on GNote, maybe for other phone its great, but on note I think it is unnecessary (its just my opinion)
I bought the pro version. Nice one. My Device Galaxy N7000. Works as said. One suggestion is when In screen Off optin/prefernces only 'Cover and Hold to Screen OFF' with one second Time out and in all setting Override Power button checked on. Now when the Power/Home button is pressed twice, the Screen shall be on. Very good. My suggestion is if the gap between the two press is more than specified time (say same as selected in Timeout), the First pressing of Power/Home button should be ignored. and similarly if the gap between the second and third press is more than a specified time, the second press shall be ignored, and so on.. ( I could not email to Sailesh/Developer because outlook is not my email client. thanks)
I have the same pro version as well. It works when i put the mobile close to my ear..but when there is another waiting call while am talking to somone in call, it picks up the waiting call automatically and held the first call. Strange, i have tried all the settings..but nothing worked out
am using flip cover for my note, sometimes it picks the calls automatically.

Awesome dude, awesome.. I feel like this is galaxy s4 with the air gestures
---------- Post added at 11:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:56 PM ----------
Found bug:
When i turn off screen with wave and when i turn off screen while screen is in lock mode it turns screen again on .. ??
And how do i prevent that the screen turns on in pocket ?
Okay i fixed it with automatically turning on the screen by just waving my hand 3 times and then it worked normal..
Oh and in the pocket the screen off, sometimes when i put it out, it turns on the screen, but thats normal cuz it recognizes something is moving near the sensor)
Awesome !! :- ))

Hi Folks!
I’ve just found not an awesome discover, but a simple bug regarding the flashlight. So this post is just informational.
What happens: the “Flashlight is on” notification shows at the notification center and there is no actual LED on.
How to recreate it:
• Open Camera app
• While on the camera, Chop twice (moto gesture).
• Press home button and check notifications.
How to solve it: Chop twice to turn on the Flashlight (for real), then repeat Chop gesture to turn off.
Stock ROM. Android 6.0.1 . MOTO XT1641
You can try it, it’s free. Feel free to comment.
Looks like they fixed it in N. While in camera, the double chop gesture is disabled now.
I am using redmi S2 (ysl)-dotos 5.2.1
I have a few questions,
1. Why this backlight dimmer button it self is disabled
2. How can I get Internet speed indicater in my top bar
3. Can't i decrease the size of bottom navigation buttons
4. In camera app I am not getting paranoma feature (do I need to install some other application or there is some setting which I haven't turned on yet)
5. How can I get 3 finger screenshot feature
Cause this device doesnt support backlight dimming its there cause xiaomi-parts.apk is inbuilt in it and this apk is for all xiaomi devices
