DLeavins Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Is it possible on Accordance for Android to have the screen stay on while using the app? In other words, can Accordance override the normal phone setting for timing out the screen while using the app? I looked through the settings for a while and was unable to find this option. Sorry if I missed it. By the way, you guys are doing a great job with the app on Android. I think it has progressed nicely. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottDF Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 I don't think there is a setting for this in the app, but apps like Tasker, or Keep Screen On are possible workarounds. I have a Tasker profile for this which works flawlessly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schulschlus Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 When I tap once to have the menus disappear, and accordance is in full screen mode, I think it usually stays on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schulschlus Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Just noticed that doesnt work anymore. Must have been changed with the update or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Λύχνις Δαν Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Yes I thought reading mode stayed on too. I tried to find an old post about it because I have a vague recollection of a discussion about it, but I could not find it. thx D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLeavins Posted November 26, 2019 Author Share Posted November 26, 2019 Thanks for the replies. I might try the Tasker workaround. An option in the app itself would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Robertson Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Just added this to the latest version (2.0.1). If you are signed up as a beta tester, the update to 2.0.1 should be available to you already in the Google Play Store. Otherwise, this should be publicly available within a couple days, assuming no issues come up in beta testing. To use this feature: When you open app settings (i.e. the Settings screen within the app) the first option is a toggle switch to "Keep screen on while reading". Enabling this option will keep the screen on indefinitely while you are on the reading screen. The option is enabled by default for tablets but must be manually enabled for phones. Thanks for the feature request! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
