Use Case: Pressing the power button to power off the screen may cause damage to the button through wear and tear. To stop using the power button to off the screen, we develop this simple app to lock the screen once the app is touched. To power on the device, use the fingerprint sensor or double tap on the screen (supported in a few models).

Tips: Even if you did not enroll your fingerprint in the device, the screen will power on once your finger is placed on the fingerprint sensor.

Lock your device screen. One touch on the screen and the screen is locked. Use any of your existing methods to unlock (Pin, Patterns, Fingerprints). Free yourself from the device power button.

Tips: If your device is using MIUI platform, then look for the desktop widget to achieve the same function and you do not need this app. Most Xiaomi models provide this function out of the box.

This app uses the Force Lock function in Device Admin, and thus this app will require activation in the device admin menu setting. To uninstall this app, you have to deactivate the app in the device admin menu setting first. Then you can proceed to uninstall the app.
