One UI 6 New Feature : Screen Curtain

[beta_operator]

Hello,

 Introducing Screen Curtain feature to the customers participating in beta program.

■ What is Screen Curtain?

Screen Curtain is a new feature that allows you to maintain application running status while the screen is turned off.

Use Screen Curtain to minimize battery consumption and heat generation.

1. Install and open Good Guardians from Galaxy Store and tap Battery Guardian.

2. Install and open Battery Guardian, and then tap 'Add the quick panel button' in the Screen Curtain menu.

3. Now, if you want to turn off the screen while keeping the application running,

   tap the Screen Curtain icon added to the quick settings.

4. After the Screen Curtain is enabled, 

   information about the currently running application is briefly displayed, and the display remains low power.

   To close the Screen Curtain, double tab or press the power key. 

- If you have already installed Battery Guardian, you may need to update it.

- The beta feature may cause unexpected problems.

- When Screen Curtain status in no longer required, it will be off automatically and device screen will switch to normal lock screen 

- It is not supported during calls or games.

- Please let us know of any issues you find or ideas for making Screen Curtain a better feature using Samsung Members.

Thank you

Galaxy Labs was a much better name...

Like this, allows me to have my YouTube dj sets on without the video.

Agree with the comment below, if this is a samsung app why not just implement it to the software? Saves bloating with another app

Don't understand Samsung why do they keep making these separate apps?? Why can't they just already bake them into the phones features?? Like RAW app why can't it already be part of the original camera app?? And why can't the image quality of RAW already be of the stock camera app?? Confuses me

So they are more optional. These apps take up storage, not everyone wants them.

All these Apps in the guardians should be included in the software update.

nothing happens after clicking "add screen curtain quick settings button on latest S23+ with OneUI 6.Tried clearing storage and cache for the Battery Guardian - did not help. However, this works on S22 with OneUI 6.

Ok, this did not work perhaps because the Good Guardians were installed from bakup during phone restore. To make it work, delete Good Guardians and all innner apps and install from scratch. One big downside of using this feature though is that your phone remains UNLOCKED, which is a significant problem if it gets stolen.

Nice feature. But it would be so much more useful if I could enable it with a routine.
