User Reviews

Summary: The app is hailed as a simple, reliable way to keep the screen on, with easy activation via quick panel and no ads. Many users cite being able to use it for reading, cooking, and deliveries, and appreciate the auto-disable-on-lock feature. However, there are recurring drawbacks: device compatibility issues on several models (Samsung, Pixel, OnePlus, Note) causing it not to work or behave unexpectedly; a confusing setup/activation flow for some; occasional stability bugs (crashes or stopped working after updates); and requests for more customization, especially a longer or user-defined timeout.

Pros

Keeps the screen on reliably, preventing idle timeout.
Simple and reliable to use; straightforward setup.
Easy activation via the quick panel (one-click access).
No ads or in-app purchases.
Auto-disables on lock to avoid battery drain when idle.

Cons

Device compatibility issues: it doesn't work on several devices/models (e.g., Samsung, Pixel, Note, OnePlus).
Confusing setup/activation flow for some users.
Stability issues: crashes or stopped working after updates.
Lacks customization: requests for longer/custom timeout options.
Inconsistent behavior on some devices where it fails to prevent wake or wakes unexpectedly.

does what it says on the box, without fuss or bother. perfect little app! just remember to turn it off once you've finished, or you drain your battery fast.
