Always On AMOLED is an Android application that enhances your device's functionality by providing an always-on display (AOD).

Application Overview

Always On AMOLED is a unique app that allows you to maintain a minimal yet informative screen when your device is idle. It provides a range of clock faces, notifications, and other useful information right on your device's lock screen. The app also offers customization options, allowing you to personalize your display to your liking.

Functionality and Features

The primary feature of Always On AMOLED is its ability to provide an always-on display, a feature usually found in high-end smartphones. This feature helps you to see your notifications, time, date, and other relevant details without unlocking your device. The app also offers a variety of clock faces, including a monthly calendar view. However, it should be noted that the monthly calendar view can be somewhat tricky to handle as users have reported accidentally highlighting dates.

Another strong point of Always On AMOLED is its customization capabilities. You can personalize your screen with a variety of themes, clock styles, and background images, to match your personal aesthetic.

However, it appears that there are some areas where the app could improve. Users have reported that the always-on display does not always activate when the screen is turned off, leaving them with a black screen. This is an inconvenience but not a deal-breaker.

Performance

The app performs efficiently in terms of battery usage. Despite the screen being always on, it does not significantly drain the device's battery, thanks to the AMOLED technology that lights up only the necessary pixels on the screen.

On the downside, Always On AMOLED does not support a dual clock feature, which could be useful for users who travel frequently and want to keep track of multiple time zones.

Conclusion

Always On AMOLED is a versatile app that effectively brings the always-on display feature to any Android device. It enhances the user experience with its wide range of customizable options. However, addressing the issues of occasional black screens and the lack of a dual clock feature could make it a more robust solution.
