About Black Screen
Pure black screen overlay: play videos with the screen off, save AMOLED battery and check for light leaks.
Black Screen turns your display completely black while the app underneath keeps running. On AMOLED and OLED phones, black pixels are switched off, so you can listen to a video, stream or podcast with the screen dark and use less battery. It is also a quick pure black test surface for spotting light leaks and stuck pixels.
Popular Uses
- Play YouTube and other videos with the screen off and audio on
- Record long videos while the display stays dark
- Hide on screen content from people around you
- Prevent accidental taps with the phone in a pocket
- Use a true black field to check backlight bleed and bright dots
How It Works
Tap Start and a black overlay covers the screen. A small floating button lets you switch it on and off at any time, and you return to your app with a tap. It is not a lock screen, so calls and notifications still behave normally.
Which App The Install Button Opens
The button opens Black Screen: video screen off on Google Play, a light overlay app with a floating toggle, privacy mode and a pure black option for AMOLED. Need the opposite? Try our White Screen page.
