Coach stops when screensaver starts

Love the app, but I find that I have to keep my phone unlocked the whole time. If I allow the screensaver to kick in, the coach stops talking, I then have to run whilst restarting the app and find where I was in the run. Am I missing something?

Kind regards

Rob

Hi Bob. Glad you’re enjoying the app. 👍 I had that same issue too, so disabled the auto lock feature on my iPhone which did the trick. I got into the habit of turning the screen off manually, and it’s been months. I don’t miss auto lock at all. 😀

Happy running 🏃🏃🏃

Cheers, unfortunately the Huawei phone doesn't have that option. Only allow 10 mins max before screen saver kicks in!
