Why Use Always On Timer?
The Android operating system is designed to aggressively trigger a screen timeout to save battery. While this is great for normal usage, it becomes incredibly frustrating when you need to keep your screen on for specific tasks. Always On Timer solves this problem permanently.
One-Tap Activation
Instantly override your system's screen timeout settings with a single tap. No need to dig through Android settings every time you want your display awake.
Battery Optimized
Engineered to be incredibly lightweight. When the timer isn't running, the app consumes absolutely zero battery power. It only engages Android WakeLocks when explicitly requested.
Absolute Privacy
We believe utility apps shouldn't harvest your data. Always On Timer requires no accounts, contains no hidden trackers, and works 100% offline.
Dark Mode Clock
Transform your device into a premium bedside clock. The ultra-dark interface prevents eye strain at night while keeping the time perfectly visible.
Custom Precision
Don't want your screen on forever? Set a precise custom timer from 1 minute up to 24 hours. The screen will automatically revert to normal behavior when time expires.
Material 3 Design
Built following Google's latest Material Design 3 guidelines. Enjoy glassmorphism effects, smooth animations, and a gorgeous, modern interface.
Perfect For Every Situation
Always On Timer isn't just an app; it's a productivity enhancer. By keeping your screen awake, you eliminate the friction of constantly touching your device.
- Reading Mode: Read long articles, eBooks, or study materials without your screen abruptly dimming right in the middle of a sentence.
- Cooking Mode: Keep recipes clearly visible on your kitchen counter. Never touch your sleeping tablet with flour-covered hands again.
- Studying & Focus: Use your phone as a dedicated Pomodoro timer or study clock that remains visible on your desk for hours.
- Dashboard Display: Repurpose old Android tablets as permanent smart home dashboards, weather stations, or crypto trackers.
- Presentations: Ensure your presentation notes, teleprompter scripts, or reference materials never vanish while you're speaking.
- Navigation & Driving: Keep off-road maps, mileage trackers, or delivery routes awake indefinitely while driving.
How It Works Technically
Android is extremely aggressive about putting apps to sleep (Doze mode) and forcing a screen timeout. To combat this, Always On Timer utilizes specialized Android APIs to ensure rock-solid reliability.
When you activate the timer, the app launches an Android Foreground Service. This tells the Android operating system that the app is performing a critical user-facing task. We then acquire a SCREEN_DIM_WAKE_LOCK or SCREEN_BRIGHT_WAKE_LOCK depending on your settings.
This architectural approach ensures that no matter what device manufacturer you use (Samsung, Google Pixel, Xiaomi, OnePlus), the system will respect your command and never sleep screen until you explicitly turn it off.
Common Questions
The app itself uses zero background battery. Power is only consumed by your physical screen hardware while the display is awake.
Yes, it utilizes native Android Foreground Services to bypass aggressive battery optimization on all major devices.
