Proximity Service APK Download for Android

Description

Proximity Service uses your device's proximity sensor to control the screen on/off state. Simply covering the sensor will turn the screen off whilst keeping the device awake - perfect for games that need to be running in the foreground but don't need your continuous attention. Flip your phone on a table, place it in your pocket, or use any other means to cover the proximity sensor. As soon as the sensor is uncovered, the screen will come back on.

This app is open source - follow the website link at the bottom of this Play Store listing for the GitHub repo.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

5 ★Good apps, it can help me turn on my screen when whatsapp call. Using moto z2 play with non original lcd. Thanks

5 ★Extremely grateful for this app. I'm a contractor and on the job I like to listen to YouTube podcasts. I turn on this app and throw my phone in my pocket. I don't have to worry about my phone pressing buttons or anything because I know p service is doing its thing. Love it. Love you guys. 🙌

2 ★Was working perfectly on my Galaxy s9, but now that I've upgraded to the Galaxy s10 it doesn't work at all. Will patiently wait for an update to fix the issue, then adjust my rating to 5 stars. It is a super useful app and would love to be able to use it again.

4 ★Useful and reliable. The optional 0.5 - 3 second delay is helpful. I set mine to 1 second to prevent accidently turning my screen off. However I find it hard to access the options, because the options screen tends to disappear when I try to access it.

4 ★Worked in my phone.one problem is that when my device is restart this app automatically not blocking the sensor.

5 ★Wonderful app and a fantastic, responsive developer. Had a minor isuue with my Android Pie Note9 screen turning off but not locking. Emailed the developer and rcvd a reply within hours with the 1-step solution. Very amazed, very impressed.

5 ★Great but it not working after my phone Android 10 update please fix this

5 ★Great app. Works as intended. However, when my phone upgraded to Pie, the service appears to be stopped intermittently. Please help. (Update 10 May 2019) Nvm, latest system update fixed it.

3 ★Still crashing on the Pixel 2 after the December 2019 update, if used from the Quick Setting. If I choose the app from the app crash pop-up, choose the app, then turn it on, it works. Annoying.

3 ★After around 30 minutes it would turn off by it's own. Phone used : redmi note 5

5 ★Awesome app. Finally, I can take calls on my OnePlus 7t pro without activating, who knows what.!!! Thanks a tonne.

3 ★good app. works fine except it's a battery drainer now app shows 18 percent battery drain note 4 even with screen off. on lg v10 high drain kills battery. stats shows screen on even though its off as shown by several battery monitor programs.
