Timeout / Lockout

Hello, currently using fullpage OS to display a browser on boot. I find that it is timing out after 10 minutes. Is there a specific file/folder in the OS that I can change it so that it never times out?

Hey, the screen should remain on with FullPageOS by default. I am closing this issue and please continue talk in the discussion.

What version of FullPageOS? Can you try version 0.14.0 nightly?

I made an image with raspberry imager and I too have black screen after 10 minutes. Where to switch it off?

@georgygoshin Same question to you - what version of FullPageOS? 0.14.0 has changes to avoid a blank screen.

@georgygoshin Same question to you - what version of FullPageOS? 0.14.0 has changes to avoid a blank screen.

I had this bug in 0.13.0, and nightly / 0.14.0 fixed it. Thank you

I had to set up only wifi in the imager for nightly build 14 from October 24th
