Title: A Must-Have Utility for Uninterrupted Screen Control

As a frequent user of screen-intensive apps for reading research papers and streaming tutorials, I’ve grown weary of my device’s display dimming mid-task—especially during critical moments like analyzing charts or pausing a cooking video with messy hands. This app elegantly erases that frustration. Unlike basic "keep awake" tools, it integrates seamlessly into daily workflows. The notification toggle is a game-changer: with one tap, I disable screen timeout while following a recipe, then swiftly reactivate it afterward. 

It’s brilliantly efficient—no app relaunching needed. I particularly rely on the USB auto-toggle feature during presentations; plugging in my projector cable instantly enables screen persistence, and unplugging restores default settings, sparing me awkward mid-speech fumbles. The timer is equally thoughtful—I set it for 20 minutes when reading eBooks, preventing accidental battery drain. Ad-free and widget-supported, it feels like a polished extension of the OS, not a tacked-on tool. Pro-tier features like app-specific activation (perfect for Kindle sessions) elevate it beyond expectations. For anyone valuing seamless device interaction, this app is indispensable.

FAQ Highlight:

Q: Do you find it frustrating when your screen turns off at inconvenient times?

A: Absolutely—this app eliminates that headache entirely. Whether I’m referencing a map during a hike or sharing my screen in a virtual meeting, its smart controls ensure my display stays active exactly when needed, then conserves power automatically. The notification toggle makes it almost effortless to manage.

    That's fantastic! It sounds like you found a perfect solution for your phone. The short shut-off time can be so annoying. Now, with this new trick, you keep it awake longer. That makes using it so much easier. Enjoy your newfound freedom!

    The app was amazing until two days ago. Now it deactivates every ten minutes. I can't keep checking my phone all the time. That’s why I relied on this app to stay active. I had to download another one to solve the issue. Please fix this, and I’ll definitely change my review. I really loved this app. Thanks a lot!

    That's great to hear! Adding a widget would definitely enhance the experience. The option to enable or disable notifications from the full version might not work well on the Nokia 8 with Android Pie. It could be more user-friendly for sure.
