What's New in v1.4.0
+ Added a "secure mode" switch that is activated by default. If activated, the FakeStandby will dismiss itself after a timeout. This is to prevent the users from locking themselves out of their own phone.
* Fix the compatibility notification for devices without quick tile support.
* Hopefully fixed a lot of issues regarding not being able to start the Accessibility Service on devices with Android 12 and newer
* The app is now compiled against SDK version 31 instead of 30
