如何防止应用程序进入Delphi XE8的睡眠模式

Question

I have a multi device Firemonkey project in Delphi XE8 which I use to make iOS and Android apps. If I am running my apps on the devices they sometimes go to sleep if I didn't touch the screen but the app is still loading stuff.

So how can I stop the app from going into sleep mode for both Android and iOS?

Answer 1

There is currently no universal way to prevent a mobile FireMonkey application from going to sleep when user activity is too low.

For iOS there is one proposed solution here: XE4 Firemonkey on iOS prevent sleep mode and for Android is another one: Delphi XE5 Android. How to use PowerManager.WakeLock? .

They are using different API calls and methods, so it would be difficult to share the same code. You could wrap the functionality into a library and with some ifdef's perhaps invoke it the same way.
