Description

Darker can lower your screen brightness to extremely low levels, to help prevent eyestrain during the night. Use the built-in color filter* to adjust the color of your display, perfect for filtering out harsh white backgrounds during the night.

Users can either upgrade the free version to Pro through in-app purchase, or directly purchase this version (for countries that don't support In-app purchases) - both are the same in terms of functionality.

Features only in the Pro version:

» Auto-On & Auto-Off
» Start at boot
» Lower brightness below 20%
» Darken navigation bar
» Custom filter colors
» Root mode
» Customizable notification buttons
• Up to three buttons can be added for quick access.
• Buttons to increase and decrease the brightness (+5%, -5%, +10%, -10%)
• Buttons to set a specific brightness (@0%, @10%, @20%, ... , @90%, @100%)
• Quick toggles (stop, pause, reset, color filter)

Note: When manually installing APK files, Android blocks the "Install" button from being pressed when Darker is running. This is NOT a bug. It's a protective measure to prevent malicious apps from camouflaging the install button. Pausing Darker will solve this.

Darker requires the use of accessibility services to darken the screen, no data will be accessed or shared via the AccessibilityService API.

*The color filter is similar to how the desktop version of f.lux works. Selecting a redder color will reduce more bluelight emitted from the display.

Tasker Support
Darker has Tasker support, use these intents to send commands to Darker:

darkerpro.STOP
darkerpro.PAUSE
darkerpro.INCREASE_5
darkerpro.INCREASE_10
darkerpro.DECREASE_5
darkerpro.DECREASE_10
darkerpro.SET_10
darkerpro.SET_20
darkerpro.SET_30
darkerpro.SET_40
darkerpro.SET_50
darkerpro.SET_60
darkerpro.SET_70
darkerpro.SET_80
darkerpro.SET_90
darkerpro.SET_100
darkerpro.TOGGLE_COLOR
darkerpro.ENABLE_COLOR
darkerpro.DISABLE_COLOR

Add the above intents to Tasker by going to Action Category→System→Send Intent→Action, leave the other fields default, and note that the intents are case sensitive.

These two intents below need an additional parameter in the "Extra" field

darkerpro.SETCOLOR "Extra" field: COLOR:1~16 (Colors are numbered left to right, top to bottom)
darkerpro.COLORSTRENGTH "Extra" field: STRENGTH:1~10

The intent below needs the "Target" field set to "Service"

darkerpro.START

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.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew

3 ★Was great. No longer updated and now doesn't come on automatically at the specified time and this is why I bought the pro version. Also the color filter needs a option to just filter out blue light, whatever color that may be. It's too confusing for me to know how to set it to get rid of the blue light. Please fix. Formerly 4*+
4 ★It was nice app when i bought it. Now without accessibility service its not working. TWILIGHT app wotks like a charm without using accessibility service. Disappointed
5 ★Best in class.
1 ★It's not working on my device even if I click the on button
5 ★I had a stupid question.
1 ★Not working on Android 12. Set timed on/off but doesn't work. Emailed developer. But no response (Has been over a week) Clearly this apps not worth it if paid users are simply ignored
2 ★For some reason the pro version is two major revisions (and over a year) behind the free version. I don't know if the dev just forgot this one exists, but Pro no longer works on my devices after the last android 12 updates, or on my new work phone running android 13.
4 ★I've loved this app for years. But over the last two weeks it's gotten less reliable. When darker is turned on it suddenly takes over all brightness control, so I can't brighten my screen without turning off the app. But then, the darker pro app got harder and harder to turn off. Finally even after turning off the app the screen was still dimmed. I had to delete the app and restart my phone to regain control of my screen brightness.
1 ★I paid for the pro version. And It doesn't work properly. It works the first time I install it. Then after the app is killed and restarted it stops working, it shows the filter is active but nothing is dimmed nor the color filter works. I am on Android 12. Fix this ASAP man!! I have been using the free app for a long time. But after the Android update, it no longer works.
5 ★It works!
