Spotify Doesn't Prevent Screen From Sleeping

[KyleG]

I just recently switched from an iPhone 4 to a Galaxy S3. On my iPhone the screen would dim, but not lock when Spotify was open and my iPhone connected to a charger.

However on my S3, with the Spotify app open, my screen dims, but then the phone locks even though its on the charger. I see in the app permissions it says "Keep screen from sleeping". But was wondering whats going on here.

I know there are the lock screen controls which are great, but i was hoping it would work similar to the iPhone app.

Aside from this though the app is way better than the iphone app, hello play queue!

Info:

Samsung Galaxy S3 AT&T

Android 4.0.4

Stock, no root or ROM

Spotify 0.5.3.56

I'm having the same problem. Has anyone figured out the solution?

Yep, Pandora has this feature.  Hopefully it will be added in the next update.  Hopefully that will be soon.
