More about this app

Very lightweight app that locks the screen when launched. Helps reduce wear on the power button

ZukuLock

Introduction

ZukuLock is a lightweight Android application that allows you to quickly toggle the screen on or off with a single tap. The app utilizes Shizuku to execute the input keyevent 26 command, mimicking the physical power button. This is particularly useful for reducing wear and tear on your power button or adding convenience to screen control.

This app was initially designed for Google Pixel devices, which lack the double-tap-to-lock feature. Most screen lock apps require Accessibility permissions, but enabling Accessibility can lead to certain banking apps in Vietnam (and possibly others globally) blocking access for security reasons. ZukuLock offers a workaround by avoiding Accessibility permissions, allowing you to use banking apps seamlessly.

Key Features

Quick Screen Toggle: Acts as a virtual power button.
Shizuku Integration: Leverages system-level permissions without requiring root access.
No UI Interruption: Simply tap the app icon to execute the action without launching any additional windows.
Customizable Gestures: Works with launchers like Lawnchair or Nova Launcher to enable double-tap gestures for locking the screen.

Requirements

Android 7.0 or higher.
Shizuku must be installed and properly configured before use.

How to Use

Install the ZukuLock application.
Ensure Shizuku is running and the app has been granted permissions.
Tap the app icon to toggle the screen on or off.
For double-tap-to-lock gestures, use launchers like Lawnchair or Nova Launcher to map the gesture to open ZukuLock.

Notes

This app does not require root access but relies on Shizuku for executing system commands.
The screen toggle functionality is implemented using the adb shell input keyevent 26 command.
Avoids the need for Accessibility permissions, enabling smooth use of banking apps that restrict access when Accessibility is enabled.
