Power Settings ​

  • Schedule Wakeup and Sleep (PLUS) – Set sleep and wakeup times for each day of the week, the whole week, or weekends only. Use the 24-hour time format HH:MM for settings, and note that not all devices can wake up on schedule. Motion detection and movement detection are deactivated at the scheduled sleep time. Pressing a power button or restarting the device after that, however, reactivates them. Other apps or system events, such as power on/off or some notifications, can wake the device from sleep. Paused services are reactivated at wakeup time. Note that some devices may fail to wake up or may not wake up at the exact time.
  • Keep Sleeping if Not Plugged – don’t wake up on schedule if device is unplugged
  • Turn Screen On on Power Connect (experimental, ver. 1.42+) – wakeup a sleeping device when power cord is plugged. Most devices will wake up even without this option.
  • Sleep on Power Connect – hibernate device when power cord is plugged, can be used for nightly charging
  • Sleep on Power Disconnect – hibernate device when power cord is unplugged, can be used for nightly sleep
  • Force Screen Off If Not Powered – Don’t allow turning on the screen if the device is unplugged. Use with caution! If you enable this option, your device will not work until you plug in the power cord!
  • Show Battery Warning (PLUS) – Show a warning on the display if the battery is below this value. Set to 0 to disable.
  • Prevent from Sleep while Screen Off – Keep device CPU awake even if the screen is turned off (Android 6+). Usually devices will fall asleep (idle/doze mode) as soon as the screen is turned off or few seconds after that, especially when running on battery. Enable this option for reliable Remote Admin or Fully Cloud connection, if your device is running on battery. Of course, using this option will drain your battery faster. This option also doesn’t work 100% with some device vendors. Some devices like Huawei may even kill our kiosk app after some screen off time. Read here for possible solutions. Note that despite this option is enabled the Android Webview will pause scripting when the screen is off. So you likely can’t keep your website “alive” once the screen is off. Use the screensaver in Fully Kiosk instead screen off as a workaround.
  • Set CPU Wakelock – Force the CPU to stay awake (usually not needed; this has no effect on newer devices).
  • Set Wifi Wakelock – force Wifi to always keep up (usually not needed)
