yes qhd only

Does this mean QHD is enabled (not the FHD+) on 96/120hz?

Update: saw it, not QHD for 96/120hz. Only at FHD+ only is enabled.

Trying turning the screen off and back on after you make a change - I found I had to do this before it was registered by screen info apps etc.

Well done SatySatsZB

It works. Nice App. Thanks.

Anyone notices a difference on your phones temperature using 96hz? Mine is a little bit warmer compared to using 60hz. Im using S20 Ultra.

Also I just realized that this app still prioritizes the set display Hz rate in Settings>Display>Motion Smoothness. If you set 60Hz in display settings the app wont work.

 

[fenvy]

what's the application behind this? or usage for common folks?

 

[xaznxplaya]

Noob question but it's 96hz at FHD so is this to save battery vs the 120?

Can we do the same with older devices, like Note8 and S8?
Almost all Xiaomi phones are supported to increase refresh rate up to 84-85...
