Pros & Cons:
Pros
- Extend screen timeout dynamically simply based on what position you’re holding your Android phone
- Can save battery power long term
Cons
- Although Screebl can save you battery life long term by shortening screen timeout when the phone is out of orientation range, the savings are somewhat negated as the app is constantly running in the background.
Features:
Screebl Android App monitors the axis orientation of your Android phone to determine how long/short your screen timeout should be. You can leave the defaults or it can be configured in the Settings menu for better control. Know that you’re phone is in/out of orientation with an Android notification in the status window shade (green is within and grey is outside of orientation).

Usefulness:
Screebl Android App was invented because it is useful for extending screen timeout without manually increasing it. Say you’re reading a long email, you typically want to have the display time longer, however when the phone is flat like lying on the table it is typically fine to allow shorter screen timeout.
Ease of Use:
Screebly Android App works out-of-the-box, however you can tweak the settings to better suit your needs.
Frequently Used:
If used, it is active every time you use your Android phone.
