Automatic screen brightness adjustment

F-Droid repository metadata

Android app for automatic screen brightness adjustment. Replacement for built-in feature.

WARNING: This app is not one click solution! It requires some configuration to work properly. It uses 4 pairs of light sensor data and corresponding screen brightness. In-between values calculated as simple linear interpolation of those points.

Main intended working mode is "Screen unlock/rotate" - read ambient light data, set brightness once... and do not annoy with backlight beaming anymore.

Permissions: - Modify system settings - required to control display brightness - Phone - keep reading light sensor data while phone ringing in pocket - Notifications - to prevent being killed by system - Request ignore battery optimizations - to prevent service suspend - Run background service - it has "special use" type because does not fit in any category - Run at startup - ...

How to install

  1. Download the APK from the button at the top of this page.
  2. Allow “Install unknown apps” for your browser or file manager only, not for every app.
  3. Open the downloaded file and confirm the installation.
  4. If installation fails with “App not installed,” remove an earlier build of the same app first. A signature conflict is the usual cause.
