I think I need to explain this. According to the [offline usage guide](https://forum.jami.net/t/jami-survival-kit-internet-down-keep-talking/5351), running the iOS version requires the screen to stay on. But after a previous update on my iPad, the option to keep the screen on permanently no longer exists. If the iPhone also received this update, I would have to touch the screen from time to time to prevent it from turning off. In some apps, I can enable a feature to prevent the screen from turning off, and I hope Jami could have an option to use a feature based on the same principle.
