Display turns off automatically on watching video on instagram

[Aman61]

Hello 

If I am viewing the video on Instagram & doesn't touch the screen. Phone's display turns off automatically acc to screen time set on phone. 

This is Always issue. 

Thanks

Go-to your Settings > Display > Screen Timeout

Turn on Keep Screen on while viewing.

Note: this is with the assumption that your phone runs OneUI 6.1

If you are still in your feed when you start watching, the screen timeout will still take effect. If you actually tap on the video (such that it becomes full screen), then the screen will not timeout mid-video.

But this doesn't happen in Iphone.

Hi Aman61,

That's great suggestion by waqqas31! Please turn on Keep Screen on while viewing. This will prevent the screen from turning off while you're watching content on apps like Instagram, as long as you're actively viewing it.

Thanks for the tip waqqas31! This should solve the issue if you're running OneUI 6.1.
