Always on Display Live

Your phone turns its screen off and the room goes dark. This puts a clock back on it. Always On Display shows the time, the date, a line of your own text, your battery level and a photo if you want one, on a black screen, until you tap it away. SEVEN CLOCK FACES Minimal, Bold, Stacked, Analog, Outline, Ring and Words. Pick one, then set the font from Chakra, Rajdhani, Mono or Wide, choose small, medium or large, put it at the top, the centre or the bottom of the screen, and give it a colour. MAKE IT YOURS Add a line of your own text, above or below the clock, at whatever size suits it. Choose a full date, a short one, or just the weekday. Or no date at all. Show the battery level, or leave it off. Add a photo, behind the clock or above it. Set the screen brightness and the clock opacity separately, so the whole thing can be as faint as you want it at three in the morning. LIMITS YOU SET The display runs on your terms: Only while charging, so it never touches your battery while you are out. Stop below a level, so it steps aside when you are running low. Active hours, so it only appears between the times you choose. Turn off after a set time, or never. SEE WHAT IT COSTS ON YOUR PHONE There is no honest single number for what an always on display costs. It depends on which face you picked, how bright it is, how opaque, and whether you added an image. So rather than quote an average that would be wrong for you, the app measures it on your phone and shows you what it found. SCREEN PROTECTION Move the clock shifts it slightly every minute, so no part of the panel is asked to show the same pixels for hours at a time. LIGHT AND DARK The app follows your system theme. BEFORE YOU INSTALL This is a software always on display. While the clock is showing, your screen is genuinely on, drawing a mostly black image. It is not the hardware always on mode built into some phones, and no app can be. It needs the "display over other apps" permission, because drawing a clock after the system has turned the screen off is the only thing that permission is used for here. Both of those are the reason the limits and the measurements above exist. You should be able to see exactly what you are running and decide whether you want it.
