clock - Force screen to be always on


We're using Samsung with Android 4.1.2 as a scrabble timer - via the default Clock application. It would be much more comfortable if I could force the phone screen to be always on so that we can see the time remaining. I found no setting or downloadable program to achieve that.


I need some workaround tip - any ideas?



Answer



To solve a temporary solution you can go into settings -> display -> sleep -> 30 min


Find an app that supports Keep Awake Keep Awake keeps the device unlocked and awake during the use of the app in question


This other one will result in digging deep in to your devices settings that are normally hidden called Developer Options for this




  • settings

  • about Deice

  • tap Build Number till you see Developer Options Enabled


Back out once


Important Notice Misusing and or abusing Developer Options has a chance to cause undesirable operation, and can cause apps to crash and or become unstable in turn can cause ANR (App Not Responding) messages to appear to the point of having to reset your device to factory settings. By continuing from here I am not responsible to any loss of data and or any other form of loss pertaining to the device(s) and or its data this is done on Continue at your own risk you have been warned


Scroll to Developer Options



  • if not turned on do so at this time Please make note of the Warning


  • check Stay Awake please note this option will only keep the device on while charging
