Goal C: Do not block iPhone while the application is running

Question

I tried to figure out how to disable iphone lock while my application was running, but I was not successful. Do you know if this is possible? My application reads values ​​from some equipment in real time, and it is really annoying when the display is constantly locked. I'm not talking about running the application in the background ... Thanks guys!

Answer 1

Disable idleTimer in UIApplication:

[UIApplication sharedApplication].idleTimerDisabled = YES; 

Answer 2

You cannot disable the lock, the user can always lock the phone. However, you can turn off the timer (auto-lock) using:

 [[UIApplication sharedApplication] setIdleTimerDisabled:YES];
