User Reviews

Users appreciate 'Don't Sleep!' for effectively keeping screens awake and easy operation, particularly helpful during tasks like cooking or work calls. However, some report issues with timer accuracy and occasional device compatibility problems. Lack of clear documentation and usability improvements like better toggle placement and incremental timers were noted. Overall, the app fulfills its core purpose but has room for stability and feature enhancements.

Pros

Effectively keeps the phone screen awake as intended, preventing screen timeout and locking during use.
Simple and easy to use with a straightforward setup process.
Adds convenience by allowing quick access via Quick Settings tile for easy toggling.
Helps in specific use cases such as cooking, monitoring apps, timelapse photography, golf GPS, and work calls.
Generally gentle on battery life compared to expectations.

Cons

Timer functionality is unreliable or inaccurate for some users, resetting sooner than set durations.
Some users experienced functionality issues on certain devices or Android versions (e.g., OnePlus 10 Pro).
Lack of clear descriptions and instructions about the app's features and how it operates.
User interface elements like enable toggle button could be more accessible, especially when wearing gloves.
Feature requests such as incremental time settings and auto dimming for battery saving are missing.

This app has been a life saver. As a baker reading new recipes, it is annoying to notice my screen has timed out when I have flour all over my hands and this app has rescued me from that. It is also nice to be able to keep my son's school bus monitor app active while I work so I can just look down at it while I work without having to worry about missing an update while unlocking it.

Because I have work apps installed on my phone I lack permission to set developer mode to allow my phone to remain unlocked during charging. But Google Assistant Gemini won't perform voice commands when the phone is locked, so this app hack-solves the problem when paired with Proximity Sensor Screen Off app and the phone is placed face down on a table.
