No Sleep

Chrome extension to keep your device awake, that works on mobile phones

What it does?
This extension allows you to prevent your device from going to dim/sleep/hibernate/lock state when there is no user activity.
It is helpful for example during reading article or cooking meal using recipe from your favourite food blog. The lock is active only on the page on which you activate it, so you don't have to remember to release it when you're done.

How it works?
When you are on the page, and you don't want your screen to go dim while reading this page just click the icon of this extension.
The lock releases when you:
- go to another page
- change tab in your browser
- refresh the page
- close/minimize browser
- click on extension icon again

How to use on mobile?
Check Kiwi Browser - it is Chrome based mobile browser that supports chrome extensions

Why it is better that other similar extenstions?
There are some chrome extensions that work in similar way. They are great, but they don't work on mobile device

Technical explanation
Extension is using native browser api - wakelock, that was created exactly for this purpose.
