About

Stayawake by Nickson

Features
Read full description

Stayawake keeps your screen on for as long as you need, then gets out of the way. Tap the cup. Pick 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, or until you turn it off. The cup fills, steam rises, and your screen stays awake. Tap again and everything goes back to normal. Perfect for workouts, recipes, reading music, or following instructions: prop the phone up and the screen stays on while Stayawake is open. β€’ A big stopwatch, the time, battery level and time left, so the lit-up screen is useful. β€’ Dim screen button drops brightness to save battery while staying awake. Tap to brighten. β€’ "Hey Siri, keep my screen on with Stayawake" starts it hands-free. Also available as a Shortcuts action with a duration, so you can automate it (arrive at the gym, screen stays on). β€’ iOS keeps the screen on only while an app is in the foreground. Stayawake makes that one tap instead of digging through Settings, and switches itself off so your battery is safe.
