I've found that the screen time out settings are not respected when you go directely to any app folder after unlocking your phone.

How to reproduce:

  • Unlock your phone by double tapping the screen or use the power button.
  • Swipe from bottom to go directly to the app drawer.
  • Tap any folder icon you have there.
  • Do nothing, just wait.

What expected:

  • My screen time out setting is set to 2 minutes, so the screen should stay on for this specified period of time.

What I have:

  • Screen turns of in approximately 10 seconds.

Note: If I do anything at home screen (go to the notifications screen or use any previousely opened app, etc.) or do any action inside the app drawer or any folder (i.e. tap any app icon to start it), screen time out works as it should and my phone stays on for 2 minutes. I have no idea if it was the same on the previuos versions of SFOS, currently using 1.1.9.28.

It could not have been the same prior to 1.1.9 because there was no opening the app drawer straight from the lock screen. You were forced through the home screen first and, as you have noticed yourself, going through the home screen sets the timeout as expected.

I am hesitant to call this a bug. As far as I am concerned, this is as expected. The lock screen time out is 10 seconds and everything you do in the lock screen, including opening the app drawer, should adhere to that.

@pichlo Yes, you right, it seems to be hardly possible in previous versions.

Still I think this is a bug, as leaving the lock screen to the app drawer just means leaving the lock screen. As soon you are in the app drawer, normal user-set time out should be used. And I can say it really annoys when you open an app folder this way and something distracts you for a moment, and when you are back to our phone and ready to start an app, everything is gone and the phone is locked again.

Two ways to see it, both equally correct IMO. I am not much bothered either way and would not call for Jolla changing it when they have bigger issues to deal with but let the majority decide.

@pichlo Agreed
