Description

Tired of pressing the power button after taking your phone out of your pocket? Pocket Up is just what you need! :D

Pocket Up is an Android app that *wakes up* your phone - switches the screen on - when you take it out of your pocket or purse or open the lid if you use one.

Pocket Up is open source so if you're interested, you can take a look at the code (and maybe even contribute):

Required Android Permissions:

★ WAKE_LOCK to turn on the screen.
★ RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED to automatically startup on boot if enabled.

Known issues

★ Might not work properly on MIUI-based ROMs. It actually *does* work. MIUI uses a task manager and a battery manager. Just add Pocket Up to the whitelists:
- Security → Permissions → Autostart and select 'Pocket Up'
- Settings → Battery & performance → Manager apps battery usage → Choose apps → 'Pocket Up' and select 'No restriction'.
★ (Possible) battery drain: Unfortunately, some smartphones let the CPU on while listening to the proximity sensor. This is called a *wake lock* and causes considerable battery drain. This isn't my fault and I cannot do anything to change this. Other phones will 'go to sleep' when the screen is turned off while still listening to the proximity sensor. In this case, the battery drain is negligible.

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.
