On high resolution amoled displays a better way to dim the screen than a dark grey overlay is to have a checkerboard grid alternating between opaque black pixels & fully transparent pixels and/or scanlines with the same properties (i.e. one fully opaque line of black pixels, one line of fully transparent pixels, and so on), of configurable density (to trade off between resolution loss/screen occlusion & decreased brightness.). This also avoids the problem of a dark grey overlay inadvertently increasing the brightness of pixels that are already set to #000000. Unfortunately the only app I've ever found for doing this is closed source and also eventually the dev sold out and infected it with horrible malware. :( I know this project hasn't had any real update in over half a decade, but… Any chance? :( also thank you for making this app, it's very useful on non-rooted devices!
