Quick answer

Keep your screen awake while specific apps are in the foreground.

F-Droid repository metadata

Stims lets you select apps that should prevent your screen from turning off. When a stimmed app is active in the foreground, the screen stays on at full brightness. When you switch to a different app, the screen resumes normal sleep behavior.

Select apps to stim from the list, tap "Stim Selected Apps", and a background service will monitor the foreground app and hold a wake lock whenever one of your chosen apps is active.

Requires Usage Access permission to detect which app is in the foreground.

How to install

  1. Download the APK from the button at the top of this page.
  2. Allow “Install unknown apps” for your browser or file manager only, not for every app.
  3. Open the downloaded file and confirm the installation.
  4. If installation fails with “App not installed,” remove an earlier build of the same app first. A signature conflict is the usual cause.
