## What is ScreenOff Player?

Press play on a web page, lock your phone and keep listening. ScreenOff Player is a web browser made for video and audio: it keeps playing with the screen off, or floats the video over your other apps in Picture in Picture.

KEEPS PLAYING, SCREEN OFF
• Video and audio keep playing when you lock your phone or switch apps
• Control playback from the Lock Screen and Control Center
• Picture in Picture: tap PiP, or go fullscreen and swipe home, and the video floats over your other apps
• AirPlay to your TV or speakers
• The Timer stops playback after 5 to 90 minutes, or at the end of the video, so you can fall asleep listening

A PLAYER THAT STAYS CLOSE
• The Now Playing bar keeps play/pause and PiP one tap away, in the browser and on Home
• The Now Playing screen has large artwork, a scrubber, skip back and forward (10, 15 or 30 seconds), speed from 0.5× to 2×, the Timer and Loop
• Pick a speed once and it's remembered for that website
• Video and audio of 5 minutes or more reopen where you left off, and Continue Listening on Home takes you straight back
• Muted video? One tap unmutes it

A CALM, SIMPLE BROWSER
• Home brings together your shortcuts, Continue Listening and recently visited pages
• Bookmarks and history live together in the Library, with search
• Search with the search engine you choose
• Switch between the desktop and mobile versions of a site
• On iPhone, widescreen video turns to landscape in fullscreen
• Light and dark appearance

YOURS, ON YOUR DEVICE
• No account needed
• Your history, bookmarks and shortcuts stay on your device
• Clear your history or website data at any time in Settings

FREE, WITH OPTIONAL PRO
ScreenOff is free, with one banner ad at the bottom of Home and of the Library. Ads never cover web pages, fullscreen video or Picture in Picture.

ScreenOff Pro is a one-time purchase, not a subscription. It removes the ads and lets you make ScreenOff your own with five more accent colors and three alternate app icons. Background playback, Picture in Picture, AirPlay and the Timer are always free.

GOOD TO KNOW
ScreenOff plays the video and audio on the websites you visit. It doesn't download or save media. Websites run their own players, so a few may behave differently.
