Help you turn your phone screen off (lock screen) without using power button.
About this app
Pineapple Lock Screen (OSS version) is a small, simple, clean, and fast application that helps you turn your phone screen off (lock screen) without using the physical power button. This could help you increase the life of your physical power button, just in case your power physical button is near broken.
This application makes use of the Android accessibility feature so it doesn't require root privilege to work.
Pineapple Lock Screen (OSS version) is the Open Source Software version of the Pineapple Lock Screen app. It has the identical functionality as the paid version (Plus version) on the store. If you do think this app is helpful, you can buy the plus version to show your support at: https://link.blumia.net/lockscreenplus-playstore

USAGE
Once installed, you need to enable its associated accessibility service to work. Just follow the in-application description and nothing more than that**.
Please note that every time you reboot or for any other reason the application is force stopped, you need to re-enable the accessibility service.
You can also create a shortcut on your launcher and/or add a Quick Settings tile to turn the screen off without entering the application, it's not required and you can also remove the shortcut when you no longer need it.
* This feature requires launcher support, tested under Pixel Launcher and Microsoft Launcher. Behavior can be toggled in the Settings screen of this app. ** Since Android 13, side-loaded package need user manually allow restricted settings before using the accessibility feature.

How to install this safely
How to verify the file you downloaded
Before you install anything, confirm the file is the one described here. On a computer, run shasum -a 256 your-download.apk (macOS or Linux) or certutil -hashfile your-download.apk SHA256 (Windows), then compare the output character-for-character with the SHA-256 on this page. If a single character differs, the file is not the build we recorded — delete it.
What the signing certificate proves
Every Android app is signed with a private key that only its developer holds. The fingerprint on this page is a hash of the matching public certificate, and it proves continuity rather than identity: it tells you a build came from whoever signed the earlier ones. Android enforces this at install time — if a package claiming to be net.blumia.pineapple.lockscreen.oss is signed with a different key, the system will refuse to install it over your existing copy. A fingerprint that changes between releases is worth pausing on, because a repackaged app that has been modified by someone else cannot keep the original signature.
How to roll back to an earlier version
If the current release misbehaves, 2.2.1-oss is the last build before it. Android will not install an older version code over a newer one, so you must uninstall Pineapple Lock Screen (OSS) first — which clears its local data unless you have a backup. Reinstall the older APK only if its signing fingerprint matches the build you already trust, and check the API range: an older release may target an Android version your device has moved past.
Why we list sources instead of hosting everything
The official store channel is almost always the right choice: it updates automatically and carries the publisher's own distribution guarantees. A direct APK is useful when a device has no store access, when a rollout has not reached your region, or when you need a specific version — and only when the publisher has authorized that copy. APKBrowse does not list pirated, cracked, or unauthorized rebuilds of Pineapple Lock Screen (OSS), and a listing is removed when the evidence for it stops holding up.
