iPhone automation

Screen AutoLock Toggle

One-tap switch between normal auto-lock and a long session mode. Built for focus sessions, cooking timers, and camera rigs where the screen must stay awake.

What it does

This shortcut flips your auto-lock between standard (30s/1m) and a longer ‘stay awake’ preset. It also gives a quick haptic and banner so you know which mode you’re in. Ideal for productivity hacks like coding from your phone, reading recipes, or running camera teleprompters. It slots neatly into iPhone automation scenes or Focus filters.
