Screen Lock v5.1.5f_ap

Screen Lock is a mobile application designed to prolong the lifespan of the hardware power button by providing an alternative method for locking the device. The app offers support for both the Admin lock and Smart lock systems, allowing users to easily customize their preferred screen lock preferences.

It is important to note that this app requires certain device permissions to function optimally. The Device Administrator permission is necessary for the app to utilize the Admin lock feature. Additionally, the Read write system settings permission is required to enable the Smart lock feature if desired.

A noteworthy aspect of this app is its utilization of the Accessibility service, which is optional for Android devices running on version 9 and above. This service is employed to overcome any potential delays in the Smart lock feature, by leveraging the internal Screen Lock option.

The functionality of Screen Lock can be accessed conveniently with just a single tap. Users can utilize various shortcuts such as Admin lock, Smart lock, or utilize the screen lock widget. Other options include accessing the lock features directly from the notification bar or using a floating widget.

In addition to its ease of use, Screen Lock also provides a range of customization options for users. Some notable features include the ability to use different animations for the phone lock experience, vibration feedback upon locking the phone, and customizable lock and unlock sounds. The sound volume can be adjusted from the notification sound volume, and further customized based on individual preferences, while still respecting Do Not Disturb mode.

The lock icon in Screen Lock is highly customizable and offers a user-friendly interface. Users have the option to choose between metallic and material icons for both the Admin lock and Smart lock functionalities.

The speed of the lock animation can be adjusted using the "Transition animation scale" and "Animator duration scale" options. We recommend setting the speed to 1x for the best 'Screen Off' experience. Please note that any changes made to the animation settings will take effect after locking and unlocking the device.

Before uninstalling Screen Lock, it is important to disable device administration to ensure a smooth process. Additionally, if applying the lock features from this app, users may need to disable the default device lock and unlock sound.

The developers of Screen Lock welcome any suggestions for improving the app. They strive to provide users with the desired usage experience and are receptive to feedback.
