Hello,

I observed when non pip normal mode screen remains ON. But in PiP mode if screen off timer off the screen.

Note : PiP mode on, control in another app. In this situation screen goes off.

Please fix this issue.

Thank you

Few more points. Please consider.

  1. Whenever any call comes even in setting it keeps the set screen on but it cause screen off while talking on the call.
  2. When in the PIP mode if we pause the current workout after the timeout screen goes off.

When using other apps, the option to keep the screen on will fail, which is a system restriction. Therefore, you must make the app visible to keep the screen on.

I used Vansed YouTube. In this in case of PIP mode video is running then screen do not go off. But in case I pause video then screen goes off

I don't know how it has been done in that but in PIP mode... dummy timer/dummy activity can tell system about the screen to do not go on off mode
