Idea - Screen Always On toggle

Andro1d — Mon, 06 May 2024 17:41:30 GMT

So the idea is that there would be a toggle in the quick settings that allows users to freeze their screen on whatever it's currently on, keeping the screen on until it is turned back off. This would be useful for when you want to keep, for example, assessment criteria visible whilst you are writing the essay which you will be assessed on, and not having to constantly wake up your screen. (This is where I got the idea). Thanks for considering this!

P.s. I am using a Samsung Galaxy S10+, so it would be appreciated if it can be added to previous software versions.

You can go into settings
Display
Scroll down to screen timeout and set it to 10 minutes
There's the option to keep screen on while viewing

There's an option in Developer mode to have the screen stay awake, but only when the device is plugged in and charging. It's not ideal, but a possible workaround.

Thanks! I'll take a look.
