About this app

Developer Description

Saving battery: Marshmallow's Doze mode for all Androids.

Official Doze mode is only for Marshmallow, but Dozzzer brings this powerful battery saving feature to all Androids. Yes, even to your Gingerbread granny!

How it works?
Internet is one of the biggest battery drainers. Dozzzer takes care to cut down connectivity whenever you are away from phone.

Highly configurable

Dozzzer is highly configurable. Go for maximum battery saving or save but get all messages on time.
Eager - activates right after turning screen off
Medium - after 5 minutes of idle, messages may be delayed by ~7 minutes
Lazy - after 10 minutes of idle, messages may be delayed by ~2 minutes

Why we ask for VPN?

Android does not allow controlling mobile data directly on Lollipop and later. We rather use a VPN as a firewall. The VPN is strictly local and does NOT cause any security risks!
The good thing? VPN allows to exclude apps (e.g. Skype or Hangouts) from Doze (Lollipop only).

Dozzzer makes sense even on Marshmallow. With eager settings you can get even more out of your battery.

Be great to get an update?

Difficult to know if this is a placebo effect or not.

Seems useful but can't really tell whether it's working? Have it on Eager but the VPN keeps turning off so not sure if it's actually blocking data or not?? Have redownloaded this and the same issue remains, absolutely no idea whether this is actually working or not. I've manually started the VPN on a few occasions, but it doesn't seem to last.

Used it for a few days on phone and tablet, seems like it helps battery more on pre-6.0 devices which don't have native doze. On my 6.0 phone it went crazy after a couple of days, VPN kept flipping on and off during use causing lag and restart. Hopefully this will be fixed since developer is responsive. P. S. I think it would be useful if it could also turn off WiFi radio when dozing, to save even more power.

The description of what the modes do can go either way, vice versa. So I have no idea what mode it should be on top save power. Also, I don't even know if it is working.
