Screen Dimmer Lite

Adjust screen brightness darker than system settings

🌟 Key Features & Functions

1. Simple "Super-Dimming Function"

  • Go Below System Minimums: Dim your screen a level darker than what default Android settings allow. Strongly shields against glaring brightness when viewing your smartphone in bed late at night.
  • Instantly Dim with One Tap: Skip complicated setting panels entirely—intuitively adjust brightness with a simple slider.

2. Maximum Lightweight Design (Save Memory)

  • Zero Background Overhead: Excludes heavy background monitoring tasks or communication services, reducing memory (RAM) usage to practically zero. Runs smoothly even on entry-level models or older devices.
  • Excellent Operating Stability: Highly resistant to interruptions from the OS or other apps, ensuring a low-profile active filter that almost never crashes unexpectedly.

3. Practically Zero Impact on Battery Life

  • Simple Screen Dimming Layer: Drawing layer architecture performs dimming without placing CPU overhead, ensuring that running the app 24/7 has virtually no effect on your smartphone's battery life.

4. Filter-Free "Screenshots"

  • Clean Screen Captures: No matter how dark your screen is set, screenshots captured while the filter is active automatically bypass the dimming layer, saving perfectly clear original images.

🔧 Device-Specific Troubleshooting

On some Android devices, the OS's aggressive power-saving features or background restrictions may turn off or prevent the filter from launching. If you experience this, please try the following settings according to your device manufacturer:

📱 Samsung (Galaxy) Devices

  • Symptom: App is put into deep sleep and terminated.
  • Solution: Go to device Settings -> Apps -> Select this app -> Battery -> Set to "Unrestricted". Additionally, go to Settings -> Battery and Device Care -> Memory -> "Excluded Apps" and add this app to the list.

📱 Xiaomi (Redmi / POCO) Devices

  • Symptom: Background launching or display over other apps is blocked.
  • Solution:
    1. Go to device Settings -> Apps -> Manage Apps -> Select this app -> Other Permissions -> Set "Display pop-up windows while running in the background" to "Always allow".
    2. Set "Battery Saver" in the same app settings page to "No restrictions".
    3. Go to the task manager (Recent Apps), long-press this app, and click the Lock (Key Icon) to prevent auto-cleanup.

📱 HUAWEI Devices

  • Symptom: App is closed by battery management (Launch Management).

Screen Dimming in the Dark

Viewing a bright screen in a dark room causes strong light to enter dilated pupils, overworking eye-focusing muscles and causing severe eye fatigue or headaches. Lower the brightness below the system minimum for night use to minimize eye strain.
