About Stims

Stims lets you select apps that should prevent your screen from turning off. When a stimmed app is active in the foreground,

the screen stays on at full brightness. When you switch to a different app, the screen resumes normal sleep behavior.

Select apps to stim from the list, tap "Stim Selected Apps", and a background service will monitor the foreground

app and hold a wake lock whenever one of your chosen apps is active.

Requires Usage Access permission to detect which app is in the foreground.

How to install Stims

  1. Tap Download — the app's official page on F-Droid opens.
  2. Install it with the F-Droid app (recommended, for automatic updates), or use the download button on that page.
  3. If Android asks, allow the F-Droid app or your browser to install apps, then tap Install.
  4. Open Stims from your app drawer.
