Kinscreen is a great app for this.

I have the exact same problem since switching from my Note 4 so this post prompted me on a search for a solution. According to this all you need to do is use KinScreen. By default it extends the timeout from 5 seconds to 10 seconds, which matches my old phone and I'm happy with it. However if you want to change that time you'd have to pay.

KinScreen by TeqTic will turn OFF the screen when covering proximity sensor:

Kinscreen has many other great features, for me this is a "Must Have" app.

The kinscreen app is what you want.

You can set up app rules to keep screen on, plus many other configs. Great app that I've used for many years.

KinScreen It's THE best app to keep your screen on while you're reading or moving the phone.. If the phone doesn't move for 15 seconds the screen locks and if the phone moves it resets to 15 seconds. I've been using this app since the day I joined the Android world Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teqtic.kinscreen

Usually when my screen turns off too fast it is because the area with the proximity sensor is dirty. This triggers the phone to think it is in a pocket. Otherwise I use the kinscreen app to give me more control of screen on/off settings. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teqtic.kinscreen

I use Kinscreen to keep the screen ON when using and turns OFF when not in use:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teqtic.kinscreen&hl=en_US

You can set an angle so when the phone or tablet is placed within this range the screen will stay ON.

Also, you can also toggle the screen ON with no timeout with a simple tap in the Notification Panel.

I just discovered an App called Kinscreen and that is the first app that really keeps the screen on.

Screen on while charging is an option in this app..

There are a variety of apps that can override the screen timeout. My favorite so far is KinScreen (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teqtic.kinscreen). I use it to keep my screen awake during calls so I can quickly un-mute, use the keypad, etc.

KinScreen: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teqtic.kinscreen

is the best app for that purpose (if you don't use Tasker).

Hi MDR-V6, Thanks so much for your reply,I'm going to install this app on my phone and try it out: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teqtic.kinscreen&hl=en_US Who Knows..it might actually work,Please Stay Safe !!

I always thought KinScreen was a pretty cool app in this category. It can keep the screen on if it senses movement, the phone is tilted up at a certain range of angle, a selected app is running, manual toggle, etc. Some of the tunables are locked behind an in app purchase.

I always thought KinScreen was an interesting app, a variety of ways to keep the screen on. Toggles, sensors, timers. Might be worth looking into.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teqtic.kinscreen

KinScreen is the best!

It can keep the screen on depending on the angle you're holding the phone at, via proximity sensor, etc. Plus has a toggle (via quick tile and/or notification) to manually keep the screen on indefinitely (can be disabled by manually locking the phone.)

I've never had that issue. Stock timeout is 30 seconds.

I use an app called KinScreen to make the screen timeout make more sense, so you might try something like that and see if it helps.

Kinscreen. Lets keeps the screen on whenever it's at a certain angle (indicating you're looking at it), or when you tap the notification icon in the tray.

Not exactly what you are asking for but if you try Kinscreen (along with the Android Smartlock) I think you will like it:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teqtic.kinscreen&hl=en

I never have to touch the screen or power button to turn OFF the screen. It's the best solution I have found.

KinScreen is one of the best apps. I can't even use any phone without it. It's what made me fall in love with the power of Android phones. KinScreen

Kinscreen has a ALWAYS ON you can toggle via notification:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teqtic.kinscreen&hl=en

This app is what I use to keep my phone awake while using and put it asleep when I put it down. I never have to touch the power button unless I am turning the phone OFF or rebooting the phone.

If you're simply looking for a way to keep your screen on in specific scenarios, then you could give KinScreen a try, as it will add a notification that, when tapped, keeps the screen on. It also allows you to keep the screen from turning off if tilted or through movement, pretty neat actually!

I wish there was a better answer. I saw this app reviewed on All About Android, and I've started playing with it. It adds the hand wave gesture. I'm still on Day 1 with it. May help ease some of the frustration.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teqtic.kinscreen

I'm really digging KinScreen. The proximity detector wake is so much better than the stock accessibility option. Plus many other options for keeping your phone awake only when you want it to be and asleep when you don't.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teqtic.kinscreen

Me too. KinScreen has a much better proximity wake with enough options to tame accidental usage. It costs $3 for a version that doesn't sleep your phone annoyingly quickly (for me), but I think it's worth it for how tweaky it is. Works well.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teqtic.kinscreen

Try KinScreen by TeqTic.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teqtic.kinscreen

Not a button to turn off but I think this solution works even better.

Ever since I installed Marshmallow (6.0), I have had concerns with the Lock Screen Password. If I try to use a “Screen OFF” app or Nova launcher to turn OFF the screen the screen (to avoid the power button) the phone will lock even if I am in in a Trusted Place or connected to a Trusted Device. With KinScreen I have found a simple solution by simply setting the phones screen timeout to 15 seconds. Now when I am using the phone the screen does not time out but when I put the phone down or cover the proximity sensor the screen goes OFF and the phone does not lock. The only thing left that bugs me is that it appears that Marshmallow Smart Lock is implemented with a 4 hour timer so even if you remain in a Trusted Place, the phone will lock – like overnight at home – requiring a PIN unlock every morning.

So far I am very happy with the KinScreen solution. I bought the App to support the developer. Give it a try.

Posting lists of app names without descriptions is so pointless I don't know why some commentators even bother.

Adskip mutes the ad on YouTube and automatically skips it as soon as the 5 second timer runs out.

Kii keyboard 2 alpha. My favourite keyboard has been revived! Customisable with excellent autocorrect/prediction. Technically it is on the Play Store but you have to opt into the alpha test first.

FYI: KinScreen is on the Play Store

KinScreen - keeps your screen on based on when it detects you're using it and times it out more quickly otherwise.

I use Kinscreen for that.

Another alternative for you might be Kinscreen. This is what I use:

Im using this one and it works perfectly in oreo.

KinScreen includes a tile to keep the screen on (like the caffeine file from some ROMs or other apps).
