Hi

I have used Skydemon now for about 10 months and it's been really good on my iPad with no issues.

I now use a Samsung Note 4 with Android 4.4.4 installed because of limited space in my flexwing microlight.

The problem is the screen goes blank after the timeout is reached if the screen is not touched. (This can be altered upto 30 minutes but no facility to disable the screen off feature). This is awkward to restart when wearing gloves in the open cockpit.

Is this a Skydemon issue or a settings issue within android that I can't find.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

We tell the operating system not to switch off the screen while in navigation mode, and this has always worked fine. We've had a few reports that the new Lollipop version of Android might have broken this, but it's too early to tell properly as there are so many other problems with the Lollipop operating system.
I wonder if specific devices have their own software which ignores apps which request that the screen not be turned off, for your "protection".
