Display goes to sleep while timer is used #53

When I start a timer and wait 30 seconds, the display goes to sleep. The app has the permission to disable the sleep mode. The disabling of the sleep mode works with another app (tabata timer), so I think that this is a problem with this app (timer machine).

My device: Motorola g30, android 12 and samsung galaxy a41, android 12.

If I remember correctly, you need to stay in the app after enabling the setting to prevent the screen from going off.

I stay in the app (of course). I'm using a two minute timer and I want to see the remaining time during the complete two minutes without interacting with the screen.

In the app settings, what's the value of the option "Screen Brightness?" By default, the app doesn't keep the screen on.

The value was "Dim the screen". I changed it to "Keep the screen on". It works. Thanks, I close the issue.
