Beta on the Play Store
What does it do?
It acts as a sleep timer for the Netflix app, putting it to sleep after a set period of time.
How does it work?
It works by initially lowering the volume and brightness of your display, so you don't get awoken by the sudden silence if you're using it at night. It then closes the Netflix app, puts your display to sleep (by changing the display timeout to it's lowest setting), then puts all your settings (volume etc) back to their original values. Job done.
Why does it need permission to modify system settings?
Two reasons:
It needs this permission to be able lower the screens brightness to gently sleep the Netflix app.
To turn your device off afterwards, the technical choices were either a, set the timeout to the lowest level and let the device put itself to sleep, or b, request device admin permissions to allow the app to manually turn off your screen... I don't know about you but I'm not too keen on giving apps admin access to my device
Known issues
There is currently no way to interrupt the app, so if it triggers at the set time, you just have to wait for it to finish - This will be resolved in the next release.

Just found out the app beta didn't actually publish so no one could download it ??
My bad.. It's up now (link in OP) ?

[Q] I need help with my tablet draining battery too quickly

Hi, I'm having a serious issue here. I unplugged my Transformer from my charger about about 11am today. I have used it, according to the screen on time in the settings, for 34 minutes. (it's now about twelve hours later.) However, the battery life is at 64%. I just don't understand this. My wi-fi is set to disconnect when screen turns off, and brightness is at about 55-60%. But look at this.

Does anybody have a clue what could be going on? If you need more information about what state it is in, I'll be glad to provide more details. It seems like this started after I updated to 3.2, but that could be unrelated.
After updating did you set up the wifi power saving again? There is a bug in android where this setting gets reset when the device is rebooted

Yeah, I double checked when I posted this and it was still on "when screen turns off".
Try using juice defender. And check your running services/applications/auto sync cuz i see there alot of wifi actifity and your device is awaken even though the screen is off.
You could try using an app called Sysem Panel by NextApp.
You will need the paid version so that you can turn on the Monitoring option in the settings - this allows you to monitor the CPU usage over 2h/8h/1d/3d.
You can also monitor Top App usage of CPU which is fantastic for identifying the culprit.

Great app - control tablets for parents
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.trustlook.devicelock
I hate this stupid app if your parents downloaded this they obviously hate you.
I don't think your parents necessarily hate you, I'm sure they use the app 'for your sake' but frankly I'm 15 almost 16 and it's just incredibly irritating to be told that it's 'lights out' and I can't use apps any more, even to sort out my alarm to wake up on time. There's a point where you become too old for this sort of control and 16 is way past that. I'm also kind of creeped out because I feel as thought the app is somehow watching me.

Do Not Disturb bug

I'm having in issue where do not disturb is coming on automatically even though the auto setting is off. Every night at 12 it switches on.
If you look at the screenshots attached you will see do not disturb is on but only visible in the settings main page. Quick settings toggle is not on, do not disturb settings is switched off yet it remains on.
The only reason I can think for this happening is because I had a galaxy s8 before this and I used to have a schedule DND at 12 till 8am. Maybe the settings some how got carried over when i restored apps and settings via the play store. Is there any way to fix this without doing a full wipe and setting up as a new device rather than restoring settings?

Try downloading the app Quickshortcut Maker from Play Store and search for Do Not Dis3. Click the settings and you should find the Android default settings. Check there to turn it off.
For some reason OnePlus decided to create their own version of a feature that is built in.

Only just saw this as I came back to post that I found a fix from another thread. I used Do Not Disturb - DND - ZenMode from the Play Store to achieve the same thing. Thanks

Wake screen for notifications

Two questions regarding "turn on screen for notifications" functionality on stock firmware OOS 11.0.8.12.KB05BA
In setting Display - Ambient display there is a 'New notifications' option, this option works only with Horizon Light
Is there a possibility to wake screen for notifications, but without color stripes on the sides?
Using search in settings you can find 'Wake screen for notifications' option.
Even if 'Ambient display' in setting is OFF, 'Wake screen for notifications' option can be turned ON, but screen doesn't wakes for new notifications.
Is it "an old" menu option that developers forgot to delete or am I missing some options to make it work?
My goal is to find a way to turn screen on for new notifications without fancy Horizon Light effects.
I'm using an app called Wake Up Screen and it works perfectly for me.

thank for your suggestion
for now I've decided to stick with aodNotify
it doesn't wake up the screen, but does a much better job (in my case) - emulates LED-light that I was missing so much
at first, while setting up this app, it's on top in statistic draining battery, but the next day it disappears from the list
