This is one of the threads I was talking about. They have a web\_viewer Url which is [https://hencehuman.github.io/index.html](https://hencehuman.github.io/index.html). This works if the user clicks the enable button. However that not exactly practical for my app. Can this be enabled when a screen opens so they don’t have to keep clicking the enabled button every screen they switch too… Or is there a better solution?

I know that this topic was discussed [in this post](http://community.thunkable.com/t/solved-video-player-does-not-keep-the-screen-on-while-playing/295641/20) and in [this post](http://community.thunkable.com/t/keep-the-screen-active/118584/8) and they are marked as Solved, but for me it is not clear yet. I know that @hhuman [posted the solution](http://community.thunkable.com/t/keep-the-screen-active/118584/8) but I was trying to workaround and to have the webpage / screen in the app activ as the user open the screen without any interaction. So, the idea is to have the screen active as it opens. I have removed the button for user interaction and I have the app screen full alive, without any enabling button, BUT it is not wo…

here is one potential solution

Great. Where do I place that? In “when screen 1 opens”? Or in “when webviewer opens”? I tried both and radio still stops after leaving phone untouched for a while or shortly after using other features/apps of the phone.
