Operation: Lights Out... Nevermind!
Here's the secret weapon in your fight against the iPad's sleep schedule: Auto-Lock. This sneaky setting is like a bedtime monster lurking in the shadows, waiting to snatch your screen away. But we can outsmart it!
Unearth the Settings App: First things first, you need to access the Settings app. It's that grey gear icon that looks like it's ready to take on any technical challenge (because, let's be honest, sometimes iPads can be a bit finicky).
Navigate to the Display Dungeon: Once inside Settings, delve into the depths of the "Display & Brightness" section.
Vanquish the Auto-Lock Beast: Here's where the magic happens. Find the "Auto-Lock" setting and slay it with the power of "Never". Yes, you read that right. Never! From this day forward, your iPad screen shall remain illuminated, a beacon of defiance against the tyranny of sleep!
Just a heads-up, though: While this is a glorious victory, keeping your screen on all the time can be a bit of a battery hog. So, maybe keep your charger handy for extended viewing sessions.
Reminder: Focus on key sentences in each paragraph.
Frequently Asked Sleep-Fighting Questions:
How to make my iPad sleep again after this whole "Never" thing?
Easy! Just follow the same steps and choose a different Auto-Lock time. Maybe 2 minutes, 5 minutes, or even (gasp) an hour!
QuickTip: Pause when something feels important.
How can I tell if Low Power Mode is messing with my screen timeout?
 |
If your iPad seems to be ignoring your Auto-Lock settings, check if Low Power Mode is enabled (it turns the battery icon yellow). Low Power Mode might be dimming the screen and putting your iPad to sleep early, even if Auto-Lock is set to a longer time.

How do I know if my iPad is actually sleeping or just the screen is off?
If you press the power button and your iPad wakes up right away, it was just snoozing with the screen off. If it takes a while to boot up, then it was a full-on sleep cycle.
Tip: Remember, the small details add value.
How can I make the screen turn off but keep the iPad awake for things like music?
There isn't a built-in way to do this, but some apps might have their own settings to keep the screen on while they're running.
How do I avoid looking like a sleep-deprived zombie clinging to my iPad all night?
Pace yourself, champion! Take breaks and get some rest, even if your iPad insists on staying awake.
