    App Settings is the module you need for manual dpi settings. I use it with a few of my apps. The app is worth it if you want more screen real estate on the app you want to change.

    It must be used with the Xposed Framework.

    • Open Xposed Installer
    • Install/Update whithin the Xposed Installer
    • Download App Settings
    • Install App Settings with a file manager or an apk installer of your choice
    • Enable the App Settings module in the Modules tab of the Xposed Installer
    • Soft Reboot
    • Open App Settings
    • Choose an app
    • Application Settings have to be on
    • Change the DPI: to any number
    • Hit the floppy to save the application settings
    • Reopen the app that you chose
    One bug that happens with apps that it will show the error "App Name has stopped working" because you set the DPI too low.

    Does it work with all apps? I tried witg Minecraft and nothing happened.

    Maybe it's because it's located on SDcard and not Internal?

    Some games and apps have a set user interface that doesn't change based on DPI.
