Darker Pro Description
Users can either upgrade the free version to Pro through in-app purchase, or directly purchase this version (for countries that don't support In-app purchases) - both are the same in terms of functionality.
Features only in the Pro version:
» Auto-On & Auto-Off
» Start at boot
» Lower brightness below 20%
» Darken navigation bar
» Custom filter colors
» Root mode
» Customizable notification buttons
• Up to three buttons can be added for quick access.
• Buttons to increase and decrease the brightness (+5%, -5%, +10%, -10%)
• Buttons to set a specific brightness (@0%, @10%, @20%, ... , @90%, @100%)
• Quick toggles (stop, pause, reset, color filter)
Note: When manually installing APK files, Android blocks the "Install" button from being pressed when Darker is running. This is NOT a bug. It's a protective measure to prevent malicious apps from camouflaging the install button. Pausing Darker will solve this.
Darker requires the use of accessibility services to darken the screen, no data will be accessed or shared via the AccessibilityService API.
*The color filter is similar to how the desktop version of f.lux works. Selecting a redder color will reduce more bluelight emitted from the display.
Tasker Support
Darker has Tasker support, use these intents to send commands to Darker:
darkerpro.STOP
darkerpro.PAUSE
darkerpro.INCREASE_5
darkerpro.INCREASE_10
darkerpro.DECREASE_5
darkerpro.DECREASE_10
darkerpro.SET_10
darkerpro.SET_20
darkerpro.SET_30
darkerpro.SET_40
darkerpro.SET_50
darkerpro.SET_60
darkerpro.SET_70
darkerpro.SET_80
darkerpro.SET_90
darkerpro.SET_100
darkerpro.TOGGLE_COLOR
darkerpro.ENABLE_COLOR
darkerpro.DISABLE_COLOR
Add the above intents to Tasker by going to Action Category→System→Send Intent→Action, leave the other fields default, and note that the intents are case sensitive.
These two intents below need an additional parameter in the "Extra" field
darkerpro.SETCOLOR "Extra" field: COLOR:1~16 (Colors are numbered left to right, top to bottom)
darkerpro.COLORSTRENGTH "Extra" field: STRENGTH:1~10
The intent below needs the "Target" field set to "Service"
darkerpro.START

Comments about Darker Pro Android Version
I've loved this app for years. But over the last two weeks it's gotten less reliable. When darker is turned on it suddenly takes over all brightness control, so I can't brighten my screen without turning off the app. But then, the darker pro app got harder and harder to turn off. Finally even after turning off the app the screen was still dimmed. I had to delete the app and restart my phone to regain control of my screen brightness.
I paid for the pro version. And It doesn't work properly. It works the first time I install it. Then after the app is killed and restarted it stops working, it shows the filter is active but nothing is dimmed nor the color filter works. I am on Android 12. Fix this ASAP man!! I have been using the free app for a long time. But after the Android update, it no longer works.
It darkens the screen, has a color filter, and Tasker integration. These are great, but without functionality to fade brightness & color changes, I'll be using a different app which provides less basic control. It'd also be nice if the app was sunset and sunrise aware.

Is Darker Pro safe for my device?
Open up
Yes, Darker Pro follows the Google Play content guidelines to ensure safe use on your Android device.
What is an XAPK file, and what should I do if the Darker Pro I downloaded is an XAPK file?
Open up
A file with .xapk extension is a compressed package file. It is a container file format that incorporates APK and additional associated files required for the installation.
The XAPK format was introduced to package the APK file and OBB file together for a seamless delivery and installation process.
XAPK format can help reduce the package size of application.
On mobile phones, users need to install the XAPK installer first, and then install XAPK files through that installer. You can find the installer here:https://apkcombo.com/how-to-install/. But on PC client, you just need to put the file on LDPlayer.
Can I play Darker Pro on my computer?
Open up
Yes, you can play Darker Pro on your computer by installing LDPlayer, an Android emulator. After installing LDPlayer, simply drag and drop the downloaded APK file into the emulator to start playing Darker Pro on PC. Alternatively, you can open the emulator, search for the game or app you want to play, and install it from there.
