When usiing Locus, I would like to change screen brightness on my Samsung S3 mini.


To change brightness, I have to go out of Locus, change the brightness, then go back.


This is not very comfortable. Is there a chance to have tool to make the changes wihinin Locus?

Tip 1 (JellyBean)


In fullscreenmode you can pull down the top systembar too (try it twice)


-> Here is your brightness slider


Tip 2 (All)


Install (eg) the app "brightness level"

,and add this to your right panel

thanks gynta, useful answer also for me.


Gerhard, I think such settings do not belong into Locus. Currently it`s not possible and it`s not also planned.

What is this setting:


Settings>Global>Allow dimmed highlight – allow to keep active screen with half brightness instead of full brightness ?

Ok, will try again as I have not seen any difference. Have been using the built-in brightness control in the Android pull down screen.

Hello, if anyone is interested ... This app allows you to change other settings also vary the brightness. It also allows you to place the widget on the status bar, not to leave the app you`re running.
