ZeroOS 1.1.0-beta.1 (Beta)

Read before installing: README, LICENSE and third-party notices. Installing means you have read and understood them, including the possible problems, and agree to them.

Personal use only, at your own risk. Do not upload or share these APKs anywhere (no app stores, APK sites, websites or file-sharing). ZeroOS may cause problems on your phone, including problems not listed or not known when it was released; the author and owner of this repository is not responsible for any damage or loss.

This is a Beta — new features before they reach Stable; not yet checked on the test phone. For everyday use, the Stable release is 1.0.0.

Install: download zeroos-1.1.0-beta.1-release.apk and open it. Export a settings backup first (Settings → Backup → Export settings), and pause Play Protect while installing (ZeroOS declares an optional Accessibility service), then turn it back on. It installs over any earlier ZeroOS build, including 1.0.0. The debug APK is only for the debug tools; both are signed with the same key.

New in 1.1.0-beta.1

• Screen-time lock, off until you turn it on in Settings → Wellbeing → Screen-time lock: after a daily cap (4 h by default), only your essential apps, calls and Android Settings work until midnight. Other apps show a lock screen, also when opened from notifications or recents (needs Usage access and Accessibility). Type the unlock phrase (IamWeakIneedThis by default) for 15 more minutes; a wrong phrase gets an "I am ___, I need ___" pun and "Do you really need this?". Making the lock weaker needs the phrase
• Fixed: text left in the app list's search (half-typed, or after a web or Play Store search) came back the next time the list opened
• Also includes everything from the 0.0.28–0.0.30 early builds: the short-video blocker, the break-screen fix and one blocking screen at a time

Known issues

• The short-video blocker doesn't always detect or block YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels correctly. It's being worked on; don't rely on it yet.
