Hello,
Is there a way to keep the screen on while the app the running? I'm looking at making an app that you need to look at almost continuously. Right now by default, the screen turns off after a few seconds then I need to press the button...

I have been using this in my app:
import { display } from "display"; display.autoOff = false;

yes there is, but, the screen disables, for good reason - battery life.
if you visit the fitbit discord channel there has been discussion, and code, re keeping the screen on.
out of my own interest, i did a test with a watchface, and never reached 1 day. an app will likely be a different use case.
a feature suggestion could be to make the length (time) configurable via your fitbit profile eg 2/5/10/20 secs..

Thanks,
I'm looking at keeping the screen on for up to 2 hours not more so I would expect the battery life to be fine 🙂
In my case there is value in keeping the screen on all the time as the user is expected to keep looking at it.
