About this app
Prevents apps from forcing maximum screen brightness when displaying certain interfaces (such as payment codes, QR scanners, etc.).
When you pick up your phone late at night and accidentally open a payment code or scan screen, the brightness suddenly jumps to 100% — blinding and unpleasant. This module stops apps from doing that, giving you back control.
How It Works
Once activated on an app, this module blocks its ability to change screen brightness for specific activities. The app will no longer be able to force brightness changes — your system brightness setting will be respected.
Scope
Simply select the apps you want this module to work on.
Currently tested/supported:
- QQ (Standard Version) - TIM - WeChat - Alipay
It is recommended not to select system apps to avoid unexpected issues. The module already blacklists system frameworks, so selecting them won't have any effect anyway.
Requirements
- LSPosed only — activating on other managers will not work - Android 8.0+ (LSPosed minimum requirement)
Features in Development (depending on demand)
- Brightness adjustment based on specific system brightness ranges and target activities (for cases where some brightness control is still needed) - Integration with screen overlay and Android 12's "Extra Dim" mode for smoother automatic brightness limiting
