Keep Screen On

Prevents the screen from turning off while the app runs, with optional timeout and brightness control.

Where: the Keep screen on card in the Edit Common Config editor.

Options

• Screen-awake mode (screenAwakeMode):
  • OFF — normal system behavior
  • ALWAYS — keep the screen on indefinitely
  • TIMED — keep on for a set duration
• Timeout (minutes) — for TIMED mode, how long to keep the screen on (screenAwakeTimeoutMinutes).
• Screen brightness — override brightness while running (screenBrightness; -1 leaves it unchanged).

Notes

• Enabling any non-OFF mode sets keepScreenOn.
• Media apps have their own keep-screen-on toggle (see the Media type).
