Ratings and reviews

Okay, so it DOES work. It just doesn't request a REQUIRED system setting "modify system settings" on Samsung devices. You have to "long press" the app icon and select "toggle" or find the "quick settings button" in your notification drop down menu to make it work. An on button in the app itself would be nice as that's the first place people are going to look. You have to read a hidden tutorial to find how to turn it on, that's not great design IMO.

Works great on my Samsung A54 (Android 14). It fulfills my need to temporary override the standard screen time-out and (optionally) reverts to the standard time-out afterwards. I'm only missing options to set the time-out to 2, 3 and 4 hours as one hour is too short and I do not want to set the time-out to infinite. Note, that for a work phone that is managed by the IT-department, this app could only prevent screen time-out up to the max time-out set by IT.

This program is fabulous. He's thought of everything. When you need to keep an app running and not log you out of your phone and shutdown, this will do it. Move the icon up next to bluetooth, and when I use Chirp to do books, through bluetooth speakers, I click bluetooth and caffeine on. When I'm done I turn them off. If I forget, it goes off when the phone shuts down anyway. Allows allows for dimming the screen. Perfect program.

What's new

• Fixed crashes on Android 14
Note: the crash issue on Android 14 is due to upstream development framework's code minify issue. This version disabled code minify temporarily to fix this issue, but this would lead to a larger app size. A new version with the normal size would be published once the upstream issue fixes.
