Awareness: Screen Timeout & Attention

Technical Analysis & User Insight:

The display panel is the primary power consumer. Setting a short timeout (30s) saves power, but is annoying while reading. "Screen Attention" uses the front-facing camera (without storing images) to detect user gaze and reset the timeout timer, offering the best of both worlds.

Micro-Blog Draft:

Title: Keep Your Screen On While You’re Reading (Automatically)

The Problem: Setting a short screen timeout saves battery, but the screen turns off while you're reading articles.

The Fix: "Screen Attention" keeps the screen on as long as you are looking at it.

Step-by-Step Guide:

Go to Settings > Display > Screen timeout.
Set it to 15 seconds or 30 seconds (best for battery).
Enable Screen Attention. Now the phone will check if you are looking before it turns off.
