Tablet auto on/off

jogdish · 31-01-2020 08:16PM #1

Hi,
Looking to use a tablet as a screen for a home security camera. I want the following the screen to be always on, i.e no auto shut off.

However I would ideally like the following:

Screen always on but shuts off between certain hours

The tablet to reboot itself, since the security camera runs on a webpage the browser being open for days on end on the one page sometimes leads to hang ups.

Is there any app that can schedule the above? Any recommendations? Using a Samsung Galaxy Tab A, 10.1, 2019.

You should look at IFTTT (If This, Then That) - https://ifttt.com/

You can look up IFTTT Recipes and see if any suit you.

EDITED -

There may be some other FOSS versions you may prefer to check out first too.
Easer is a decent one - https://f-droid.org/packages/ryey.easer/

If you don't mind paying about a fiver, Fully Kiosk will do what you want. I use it for my alarm control panel, for example, turning the display on when it detects motion on the camera, that kind of stuff. It can also schedule reboots and auto starting specific apps
