The system starts to count most of the battery usage consumed while this app is in use as power consumed by this app.
I see the same problem when I use screeble, because this app is affecting the brightness, it counts the battery ussage towards the app even if it might actually be saving you're battery

Edit:
darn, that was supposed to be a response to a quote, but I guess I didn't hit the quote button and didn't pay attention.
oh, well.
great app

Screenshots taken from my Galaxy S phone.
This usage is normal when using ScreenOn Lock feature due to constant orientation sensors pooling.
Without this option enabled, the battery use should be below 1%.

New feature:
"Bright Light Detection", automatically disable Screen Filter based on Light Sensor readings when bright light is detected.
Useful when Screen Filter is enabled and the phone is used under direct sun, this feature will temporally disable the Screen Filter if the light threshold is passed.

Hello guys, no need for you to worry, there is nothing wrong with the application, I'm the worried one because Google in his great wisdom have blocked my publisher's account because one of his customers (developer) has violated some copyrights terms...
Ok, this is nothing wrong here, but how about the other developers (including me) that were publishing through the same publisher and haven't done anything wrong, why also we to suffer ?
And that the thing to be complete, Google also disabled my publisher account without any notice, and also the Trial version of Total Screen Control is not any more available.
I'm very upset on this approach, now I and my publisher wait a God sign from the mighty Google...

    I would like to take the opportunity given by XDA forum and share with you my application, named "Total Screen Control".
    I would be more than happy if I will receive through this thread opinions, features requests, bug fixes requests, new ideas, anything that could improve the application.
    Thanks !

    Total Screen Control

    Total Screen Control is an application for setting the Brightness Level, Screen Filter, ScreenOn Lock and Rotation Lock preferences individually for any application installed on your phone.
    Allows you to apply a filter that dims the brightness below minimum value so your eyes don't hurt during night viewing. Very useful in low light conditions especially on AMOLED screens where even the lowest brightness value is still bright. Also can save a lot of battery combined with ScreenOn Lock based on phone orientation!

    More features:
    - Screen Filter/Privacy with schedule and brightness slider for fine control !
    - Dynamic Screen Filter based on phone's light sensor! Forget about classic auto-brightness, switch to Dynamic Screen Filter!
    - Screen Filter Bar for easy and cool control of Filter dim
    - ScreenOn Lock based on phone orientation! Keeps the screen on as long as you use your phone! SAVE BATTERY also!
    - ScreenOn Lock, Brightness level and Rotation Lock individually for any app
    - Option to disable softkey backlight (not working on all phones)
    - Tasker/Locale plugins !
    - Notification icon on Status bar with all needed information
    - Up to 5 configurable Screen Filter Presets
    - 3 Widgets for easy access
    - Configurable preferences, alerts
    - Start at boot

    Does your eyes hurt you when reading or playing before bedtime ? Enable the Screen Filter
    Tired to get the screen off while reading your eBook, browsing on Web or playing? Setup the ScreenOn Lock
    Want to set the brightness or rotation individually? Configure them with Total Screen Control
    For all these this application is for you!

    Hi I like that app very much....it is allmost perfect.
    One thing is a bit strange....lets say I have set the screen timout to 30s. As long as I hold my phone in the range your app prefents the screen to go off everything is fine but if I am out of range it goes off directly. I woud have suggested that it than goes off after those 30s. Lets say your moved your phone by exident out of range you dont want that the screen goes off directly without a chance to move it back.

    Thanks for the app!

    The screen filter bar sounds great, but doesn't seem to work on my droid incredible 2.
    Absolutely nothing shows up, no matter what settings I choose. Am I missing an important step?

    Have you updated to the latest available version on Market ? Initially I released a version from old sources that didn't work, but last night I put the correct version that should work.
    Also don't forget to click on Enable Screen Filter Bar option.
    Let me know how if it worked.
