Getting Started
OLED Guard Pro protects your OLED display from burn-in using real-time, content-aware GPU-accelerated overlays.
Quick Start
- Download OLED Guard Pro from the Microsoft Store or Steam
- Launch the app — it starts minimized in your system tray
- Enable protection on your OLED display from the Dashboard
- Pick a preset that matches what you do most — Auto Mode is on by default in every factory preset, so the controller will adapt to what's actually on your screen without further tuning
System Requirements
- OS: Windows 10 (1903+) or Windows 11
- GPU: Any DirectX 11 compatible graphics card
- RAM: ~50 MB
- CPU: Minimal — all processing happens on the GPU
How It Works
OLED Guard captures your screen using DXGI Desktop Duplication, analyzes pixel brightness and persistence on the GPU, and renders a protective overlay only where burn-in risk is detected.
Unlike simple screen dimmers or pixel shifters, OLED Guard tracks per-pixel exposure accumulation — the same physics that cause real OLED burn-in — and responds proportionally.
