About Wakey - Control your screen sleep and brightness

Have you ever wanted to keep your device's screen on longer than normal? Want to make your screen go to max brightness when you are using navigation or viewing your vacation photos? Been playing that latest game craze that wants your screen on all the time? With Wakey, you can keep your screen on as long as you like.

Wakey keeps your screen on, on your terms - make the screen really bright, dim, or even completely dark - but the phone's still awake and working. Wakey can also be set to keep your screen on when certain apps or games are active, or when the device is charging, or even when you are looking at the device.

Wakey is battery friendly - it will keep the screen awake only when you need it. You can enable it manually with the big bulb right in the app at any time, and tap it again or use the notification to disable it.

Note: Wakey might misbehave if task killers or battery savers are running. Xiaomi devices running MUIU 8 seem particularly unable (or unwilling) to be kept awake by any means, so I have removed support from most Xiaomi devices. If you happen to get it installed on one, and it doesn't work, please let me know at info@kanetik.com.

Wakey Premium (in-app upgrade) has several features that will make your life even easier:

FaceWake Keep your screen awake as long as you are looking at it.

AppWake Automatically keep your screen awake when certain apps are in the foreground.

ChargeWake Automatically keep your screen awake when it's charging.

Tasker Plugin You can use Tasker or Locale to customize Wakey more than ever! Set Wakey to react to whatever triggers Tasker supports. Night-time browsing? Set the screen to remain on & dim. Using nav during the day? Set the screen on full brightness. You now have more control than ever!

Works perfectly! I use it to keep the screen alive while listening to music while driving. App can switch on automatically when another app is switched on (Deezer, Spotify), but you need the premium version for that.

Perfect, Just an idea to make it even better than 5* it already is, Don't know if it's possible but if you could add a timer, for example, if I leave the phone down with one of those apps that are marked to keep screen on, if I forget the phone, not battery good, so, if we could set it to an X number if minutes? Thanks for the excellent work, working wonders on xperia x performance with 7.0

Even with the problem with the update if you use tasker you still can use it for app time out I have use it that way all along and it will work and still works but not sure why that was removed I'm guessing Google

I don't see any point to it now that appwake has been taken off...

Q70%
by Q####:

When phoning hands-free, the call display of the S6 annoyingly goes black after 30 seconds, causing the much needed on-screen buttons to be unavailable. To avoid this, a screen tapping is required every 25 seconds or so, all the more annoying when you're busy with other things. The Wakey app keeps the call display lit, no matter the length of the call.

This application starts on its own will and use the selfie camera focus. I was trouble shooting why I kept hearing "tap tap" sound from my phone. At last Wakey is using the focus of the selfie camera. I uninstall it and the tap tap sound is resolved.

AppWake is great, have a bunch of games that don't stay awake, this keeps the screen from turning off while they're running and it's all automatic. Rarely it won't detect a game running, don't know why.

T70%
by T####:

Very solid and useful app that helps keep my screen on when other apps don't have the Android permission set. Can sometimes get stuck 'on', but a force stop resolves this.

I70%
by I####:

Turns itself on and kills my battery. It used to be essential because HTC Car App has a bug that lets the screen go dark.

Great app, mainly use it for Pokemon go. Love the pulldown tile toggle
