Description

By default, iOS and Android dim the screen and eventually lock the device after periods of no user interaction. Use the mobileLockIdleTimer command to prevent iOS or Android from dimming or locking the screen. To return to the default behavior use mobileUnlockIdleTimer.

Locking the idle timer increments an internal lock count, while unlocking the idle timer decrements the lock count. When the lock count goes from 0 to 1, the idleTimer is turned off; when the lock count goes from 1 to 0, the idleTimer is turned on.
