User Reviews

Users appreciate Insomnia for its simplicity, lack of ads, and effective screen awake function on older devices. However, many report that it fails on newer Android versions and devices, such as Samsung's Note 10 and OnePlus phones, often due to lack of recent updates to maintain compatibility. Common complaints include the app stopping unexpectedly, struggling to keep the screen awake continuously, and confusing toggle controls. While loved for its minimal design and widget, users desire updates and better support for newer devices to restore full functionality.

Pros

Simple and effective when working, with a straightforward interface.
No ads or annoying reminders to rate the app.
Includes a handy widget for quick toggling.
Lightweight and minimal design, feeling less resource intensive than similar apps.
Has been reliable for many users on older or compatible devices.

Cons

App stops working or fails to keep the screen awake on newer Android versions or devices like Samsung Note 10, S20 Ultra, and OnePlus Oxygen OS.
No recent updates (last updated 2018) leading to compatibility issues with modern Android OS and devices.
Inability to continue working after screen turns off and back on, causing it to lose functionality soon after activation.
Confusing or reversed toggle button behavior in notifications for some users.
Lack of additional features or customization options to improve staying awake functionality.

Does literally nothing but tell you if your phone can sleep (something settings and quick bar can tell you by default) There are no settings or options whatsoever. Why does this worthless app even exist??
