With Quick Tile and Notification. Simple switching screen timeout.

Features & Capabilities

The Screen Timeout Widget offers a lightweight and easy-to-use widget for Android devices, enabling users to switch screen timeout durations directly from the home screen, notifications panel, or quick settings tile (Android 7+). It supports multiple preset timeout intervals ranging from as short as 1 second up to 'Never switched off', providing flexible control over your device's screen timeout behavior.

Users can add the widget to their home screen or notifications panel for quick access, and for devices running Android 7 or higher, a quick settings tile is available for even faster toggling. The extension ensures synchronization between the widget states across home screen, notifications, and quick settings. It's a practical tool for users seeking simple and immediate control of their screen timeout settings without navigating through multiple menus.

User Reviews

Users appreciate the Screen Timeout Widget for its simplicity, ease of use, and ability to quickly toggle screen timeout settings, especially to keep screens awake during activities like monitoring heart rate. It effectively bypasses system-imposed timeout limits on some devices and is free with no ads. However, some users report functionality issues on certain devices (especially OnePlus and newer Android versions), limited customization options for widget appearance, inconvenient methods to change timeout settings, and lack of intermediate timeout durations. Overall, it meets core needs but could improve in customization and compatibility.

Pros

Simple and effective widget to quickly change screen timeout settings.
Helps avoid the inconvenience of screen turning off while using Bluetooth heart rate monitors or similar devices.
Minimalistic and easy to use with quick toggling between timeout options.
Bypasses device-imposed screen timeout limits on some devices (e.g., Samsung).
No ads and free, appreciated by users.

Cons

Issues with widget not working or stopping after some time on certain devices (notably OnePlus and devices with Android 11+).
Limited customization of widget icon and aesthetics; icons look oversized or fuzzy and don't fit well on home screens.
Lack of longer timeout options (e.g., no 15 or 20 minute options, jump from 10 to 30 minutes is big).
Need to delete and re-add widget to change timeout settings is inconvenient.
Inconsistent behavior with quick notification toggle switch on some devices.

Perfect, this is all I need. A simple toggle to change the screen timeout settings. My Bluetooth heart rate monitor was not much use when every time I glanced at my phone to see what my heart rate was, it had gone dark. It's a real pain to change the screen timeout in settings, and then remember to change it back so I don't kill my battery during normal everyday use. A 15 or 20 minute time out option would be nice, though. It's quite a jump from 10 minutes to 30. Flawless otherwise.

simply perfect! TY -----Install, long-press to add widget, first time asks to set permission, set up your needs, and you have quick taps for multiple screen time out. I set 5M 30M Endless for vehicle. Sweet!
