Review summary

Shake Off is lauded for battery saving, fast locking, and power-button substitution across various devices, but users report inconsistent performance on some phones, uninstall difficulties, biometric unlock troubles after shaking, sensitivity issues, and concerns about updates or discontinuation.

Pros

Saves battery life by turning off the screen and sleeping when locked, AMOLED-friendly.
Fast, reliable, and quick—responds well and avoids wasting time.
Can substitute for a broken power button and securely locks the device.
Works on a wide range of devices and modes, including older/low-end phones and Ultra Power Saving mode.

Cons

Inconsistent performance: doesn't work on some devices or occasions.
Difficult to uninstall or disable in order to remove it.
Biometric unlock (fingerprint/face) often stops working after shake.
Sensitivity not adjustable to max and may require hard shakes.
Not updated or discontinued on some devices, raising long-term reliability concerns.
