Notes
• The accessibility service for this app must be enabled to detect when the game is running.
• Works best with a proximity sensor but if not available will instead check for upside down orientation.
• Double tap the power button to disable manual lock.
• AutoInput plugin with accessibility enabled is required to block key presses in pocket. Without it game can be sent to background but should be restored automatically.
• Secure Settings plugin is required to keep the screen on forever. Without it you will only get the longest timeout your phone supports.
• Secure Settings with root access and System+ enabled is required in order to change Location settings. It also allows faster transitions when toggling Power Saving Mode and key backlights.
• The default trigger for spawn notifications relies on vibrate being enabled in the game and may not work on all devices. It is possible to edit the Logcat tag filter and trigger string if you find something that works better.
• Keyguard can't be toggled if you're using a secure lock screen.

This is an unofficial extension. No association with Niantic or related entities should be inferred.

This app is perfect! Keeps POGO awake with full screen sleep, and the timers and fast restart button are a handy bonus. I posted a problem and got a dev response (and a fix!) in under 24 hours. Not bad for a dollar! But the Play store hates you for some reason, Snowy. I'm only able to get here through the reddit link; a direct search for "Power Saver GO" brings up nothing. And the store insisted that I still had the app installed after I removed it, so if you hadn't linked me the updated APK I would not have been able to reinstall

Notifications don't work for me, disabling the power saving mode doesn't actually disable it, and on top of all that, the support mail doesn't work. Asking for a refund right now.

The app description says that it disables buttons. Well I tested it by clicking all the buttons while active. When I checked Pokemon go was on the background... Refunding if I don't obtain any reply in 2 hours.

Been using this for weeks and it's really an indispensable tool for running with PoGO. The restart it also a handy feature whenever PoGO decides it doesn't want to communicate anymore. Personally would appreciate an option to turn the timers off, but I can live with them.
