About this app

BleKip is an app which can keep the device awake, showing a black screen on the display. It keeps the apps running and videos playing, while reducing the battery consumed by the screen.

Usefulness and core fuctionalities of this app:

(1) Keep the device awake, when needed:

When the device's screen is off, it goes to sleep mode. It transfers work to low-power CPU cores and reduce network capabilities. It can also stops background tasks anytime. This sleep mode can save the battery. But in some cases, we may need to keep the device awake for the critical tasks.
For example :
(a) While downloading the large files which may fail if the device goes to sleep mode.
(b) While playing videos in the apps which can't continue playback if the screen is off.
(c) While performing CPU-demanding tasks, and while loading large critical content in the apps; which should not be stopped or slowed down when the screen goes off.

BleKip can help in such situations. BleKip keeps the display on and the device awake, while showing a black screen on display with lowest level of brightness.

(2) Save battery consumed by the screen:

When it is required to keep the screen on for long period of time, BleKip can help reduce the battery consumed by the screen.
(a) For OLED displays: OLED display does not consume battery while showing a full black screen.
(b) For non-OLED displays: Battery is saved by setting the the screen brightness to its lowest possible level.

(3) Prevents burn-in on OLED screen:

Displaying a static content on OLED screen for very-very long period of time, can cause permanent burn-in. When it is required to keep the screen on for long period of time in order to keep the device fully awake, BleKip can help preventing the burn-in on OLED screen. BleKip shows a full black screen on display, all the pixel are turned off. which prevents burn-in.

30/10/2024 Even though it is a very good app, I've to request two more features. 1. When we click the quick settings tile, a floating action button should appear. All the settings should be done from the app. When we click the action button screen should go black with the prior mentioned settings. 2. When the screen goes black touch functions should also become disabled. Updated: requesting the feature to disable touch screen and double tap volume button to turn on the screen.

Thank you for the feedback. Please try the latest version. (1) Now, quick-toggle (from notification drawer) opens the black screen directly. (2) To prevent unwanted exit by accidental touch, Now it requires "double tap" to exit. 🙏🙂

As always from Krossbit, the app tries to improve on existing solutions. In this case, this is a clear improvement on how keep screen on app work. Update. After recent update, the app is even better. I can customize tts skip times in Chrome read aloud and it works even though it doesn't with the native player on Chrome 👍👍👍

Easily hands down 5 stars, whats not to like about this app. its clean, its minimal, doesn't require root nor shizuku. but first thanks for the devs who made it possible, this comes in handy for so many out there. what it does is that it simply turns off the screen without clearing your background or foreground process saving you battery while if the screen were on, all while not rooting (for advanced users) nor using shizuku (a tool for non rooted users to use adb apps like extinguish)lookonweb
