A simple Clock/Information Interface made to take advantage of the iPhone OLED displays. Keep track of time, add a personal note, check the weather, add icons or images to the Information Interface. The interface takes minor jumps each minute (3 pixels), this is built as a safety measure for OLED panels. OLEDX is highly energy efficient. By using the most efficient methods to accomplish its main purpose OLEDX achieves very low power consumption. The iPhone OLED screens make it possible to have zero light emitting from pixels that are not being used, the entire screen will look completely dark while the information interface pixels will emit light. Features: -Display Time and Date -Current Weather Face -Display Battery Information -Display Icon or Personal Note -Display Icon -Dual Time Zone Interface -Analog Or Digital Clock -Proximity Sensor Monitoring -Energy Efficient -Multiple Watch Faces -Face color customization -Star Roofs -Adjust brightness of the interface by panning up and down across it. And more. Star roofs once set will go into a slide show mode and will loop through the set. This is done in order to prevent a single roof from being displayed for extended periods of time. The Settings button shows on and off when you first enter the app, but you can tap on that position of the screen anytime to access the settings menu. Screen brightness can be adjusted by panning up and down with your finger across the interface.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Flurry Screensaver at none against OLEDX's 1. Flurry Screensaver also leads on review sentiment (75% vs 49%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 13.0). OLEDX's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (5.2K vs 70). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. OLEDX sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Flurry Screensaver asks for nothing beyond the download.
OLEDX holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OLEDX has 5.2K ratings behind it against 70, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Flurry Screensaver's written reviews are positive against 49% of OLEDX's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Flurry Screensaver ships an update every 13 months, OLEDX every 10 months. Both last shipped on October 29, 2026.
