How do I keep my timer/stopwatch from dimming while I use it.  I set the timer for 30 seconds and the screen dims to off before the 30 seconds is complete.  I have to wake it up manually-difficult to do when holding a plank position.

Sorry, but you can't. The auto dim is a feature to conserve the battery. You can't change it.

We cannot change that, any chance you folks can? I have the same problem. Doing exercises with a time requirement. It kinda sucks trying to look up at a wall clock or similar device. I turned to my Fitbit for the solution but was met with sadness. The community as a whole would thank you if you could modify the code so that the timer screen is exempt from auto dim.
