About Power Switch Lite

Power Switch is a tool for devices with cases - somewhat like the SmartCover, it will turn off the screen when you shut the case.


If you have a device with poor battery life, Power Switch can save tons of juice by switching it off entirely after a given amount of time asleep.

FEATURES:

- Sleep seconds after shutting case
- Automatic shutdown (root only)
- Set up a schedule using Night Mode
- Configure sensor sensitivity
- Facedown to turn screen off
- Uses almost no power in single sensor mode

This demo limits the minimum time before a device sleeps. please buy the full version for maximum awesomeness!

The app has gone through an extensive testing process at XDA Developers. Thanks to everyone who helped make it happen, you're the best.

ADMIN PERMISSIONS are required to manipulate the screen state without root.


Keywords: root, rooted, tool, system, power, save, power saver, screen off, no lock, automatic shutdown, quick shutdown.

Nice app, works great on Motorola xoom. Looking for an app that will auto shut down after reaching a set temperature. I would buy the pro version if that feature was added.

I wanted a power off shutdown timer. It should work, but doesn't. Shame, as would have been perfect!

Works well on my toshiba tab. For a free version i dont mind the minimum time for the screen to lock. I would give it 5* when the shutdown mode would be abe to realize when data is streamed like music is playing or something is being downloaded, so that it would not shutdown. This way you have to disable it inbetween.

On an ASUS TF101, the prompt to power off comes up while in use, and overnight while the tablet is docked/closed the tablet never shuts down.

I've only had it installed for a few days but it's helped extend my battery life considerably. My Transformer now works like it should from the factory. I've never understood why Asus didn't design the Transformer to go into hibernation mode when you closed the lid. I was constantly forgetting to manually put it to sleep before shutting the dock lid only to come home back to a discharged tablet. Thank you. Asus Transformer TF101

works as advertised on a Galaxy Note with proximity only. It'd be nice if it could turn the screen on when I flip open the cover - without affecting battery life too much.
