## Description

Has your music ever paused by itself while you were running, with the phone in an armband? That is sweat touching the screen. Touch Protector fixes exactly that.<br><br>One tap on the quick settings tile - like wifi - and the screen stops responding to touches. The volume keys keep working, the music keeps playing.<br><br>BLACKOUT MODE<br>A black screen that stays on, with a clock in the middle. It keeps you off the lockscreen, where the music controls would become touchable again: that is almost always the real culprit behind the skipped track.<br><br>THREE WAYS TO UNLOCK, ALWAYS AVAILABLE<br>- Long press, or tap several times: you pick the gesture, the seconds of pressure or the number of taps.<br>- The button in the notification, with a confirmation to rule out stray touches.<br>- In an emergency: three screen wakes with the side key.<br><br>BUILT TO NEVER LEAVE YOU STUCK<br>If a call comes in the lock suspends itself and comes back when you are done. You can set an automatic unlock timer. After a reboot the lock never turns itself back on.<br><br>WHAT IT DOES NOT DO<br>The notification shade and the navigation bar stay touchable: Android lets no ordinary app cover them, and they are your way out. All the rest of the screen is blocked.<br><br>No ads, no account, no data collected, no internet access.
