Prevent Android chrome from going idle / auto-locking / sleeping phone?

Question

I need to do on the website some feature to disabled idle/sleep phone. Does anyone try make this on phone with android ? is it in any way possible?

Answer 1

We strongly don't encourage developers to do this at all. However it is possible. You can simply have a video playing on the page and the device won't go to sleep. This means you could have single frame video set to auto-loop and play (requires a user interaction)

Richard Tibbett has created NoSleep.js to simplify the process for developers.
