Hi!
I downloaded iPhone edition. it's great!
Is it possible to disable screen auto-lock on setting?
I'd like to put it on my desk always.
Thanks.
Yuchi

Deae Yuchi, I don't know, probably - yes, but I need to find it out.
Do you know any app with this functionality

TomTom...among others...
Perhaps these lines might help you Par...
1.UIApplication *thisApp = [UIApplication sharedApplication];
2.thisApp.idleTimerDisabled = YES;

Just make sure it is an option available in settings and not standard behavior...
Apple might refuse it otherwise...As a matter of fact I'm pretty it won't pass their scrutiny...

And Yuchi...
I know it's a hassle disabling the autolock on the iPhone...
You may wanna consider jailbreaking (depending on the firmware you have running) your iPhone and installing SpringBoardSettings (SBS)...
That way you can disable autolock with just one swipe and a simple touch on the right widget...
But that is a territory this forum does not cover...

Dear par.
Yes, I know. For example "Weather live" from Apalon has disabling auto-lock setting.
I'm using this app on my desk, but YoWindow is more beautiful!
Dear Wally.
Thank you for your reply. I'm not familiar with programming, so I didn't know it's a hassle.
Jailbreaking, ummm.... I don't wanna do so.
Thanks!
