Description Malik Kennedy 2025-11-06 16:12:22 UTC

SUMMARY
Please support the app to change system settings for display and lock timeout. I keep both of these very low all the time (30s) and so I need to either change the timeout or continually tap my phone.

Android  (16.0) (Drop down only shows through 14.x, is that the latest supported version? 
KDE Frameworks: 6.15.0
Qt: Using 6.9.0 and built against 6.9.0
Build ABI: arm64-little_endian-lp64
Kernel: linux 6.1.155-android14-11-g6cee2aaf18ba

I believe VLC has this functionality, if you want to look at their
implementation.
