[Mobile] Screen always on Option

[osornios]

When the Spotify app is in focus keep the screen on and prevent it from locking. Just like in PowerAmp, this should be an optional setting.

It's really annoying to have to unlock the phone to skip tracks, or see the name of the current song or artist, especially when driving.

"As long as I was charging my iPhone, my screen never locked when Spotify was open... until the last update I (regrettably) did a few months ago.

And yes, I know I can turn off auto lock. That’s sometimes what I do now. And that comes with its own set of issues. "

Got some good news. 

The last update has seemed to have solved the issue! Spotify might have finally taken noticed of this thread!

I just tried it and the screen still locks when playing songs if not connected via Bluetooth. It never used to do that. It would always stay unlocked. I don’t use Bluetooth as I don’t have it in the car. I used an aux cable and the screen locking is a real pain. Please can it remained unlocked like it used to

Hi,

This still isn't happening. I have to change the screen lock settings on the phone itself every time I use Spotify in the car as I don't have bluetooth in the car. A manual car mode setting would save me having to do this.

Thanks

Spotify screen closes automatically. I have to keep unlocking phone.

My Spotify/iPhone has started to lock itself when connected to my aux bluetooth adaptor in my car- it always used to stay unlocked when using Spotify. How do I get Spotify to recognise my adaptor as a car Bluetooth and for Spotify to go into car mode ?
