Description
**Please note, Caffeinate is on hiatus while I work through some personal issues, thank you for your interest in Caffeinate however, that means the world to me!**
Caffeinate works by creating a Tile in your Quick Settings, a feature only available in Android Nougat (7.0) and higher.
Upon toggling, Caffeinate will keep your screen awake for five minutes (you can increase this timer by tapping the tile, or change the default time in the settings). After times up, your screen will continue sleeping normally.
Pretty much works exactly like CM's (and now LineageOS') caffeine function.
A few things to note... - Caffeinate posts a notification when activated (and removed when the timer hits zero) in order to prevent the service from being killed. You can disable notifications for Caffeinate by long pressing the notification, and choosing to block all notifications (You'll miss the quick cancel option however!).
- By default, Caffeinate has an app launcher icon just like any other normal app on your phone, but you can choose to hide this icon through Caffeinate's settings menu.
- Caffeinate uses Firebase, in order to report crashes, some analytics, and remote config (A/B testing).
- Due to issues with aggressive battery optimizations features built into OneUI, Caffeinate is not supported on Samsung phones/tablets.

I have just discovered this by recommendation recently from a friend and for a free app, it is indeed very, very useful for people who do work using Android devices. Thank you, Russell Richardson (Developer of Caffeinated) for allowing your fantastic app to be free to use for all.

I have been using this app for several years and I don't know why I didn't write this review sooner, I install it on every compatible Android devices I own (unfortunately some Samsung's are not, but Samsung is to blame, for bending certain standards to its will). It has a convenient tile icon, that doesn't remind of coffee at all (good for me, since I don't like it and don't drink it). It's completely free, without any ads, and the developer responds quickly and is helpful.

It works a treat for my Motorola G5+ running Oreo 8.1.0. What an absolute pain in the ass it was when only 30 min was the max screen time. So thank you for this app.

It used to work very well, and I used it quite a bit, but recently it has stopped working. Currently using a Galaxy S20 on Android 10 and a Galaxy Tab S4 on Android 9.

Doesn't work. Screen gets turn off even when activated. (Galaxy Note 9)
★☆☆☆☆Jayden· Sep 12, 2020
Used to work perfectly and was the best app of its kind. Now no longer works on Galaxy S10e with Android 10. Quick toggle and notification appear but doesn't actually keep the screen awake.
