Turn on\off android devices screen

having an ability to send on\off commands from home assist to “phones & tablets” with “Companion App”

Example use case:
Turn off screen when away or at night, to prevent screen burning & unnecessary battery consumption.

You can already turn on the screen using a notification command

Screen off would require device admin permissions but there is an existing feature request to update the screen timeout setting.

I just have another question that could be similar to this one.

I installed a 10" touch display with a STRONG Leap S3-Android TV Box. Home Asisstant is running on Fully Kiosk Mode. When I enable screensaver, than I cannot go back with the touch-function so I need the remote.

What is my plan:

  • deactivate screensaver mode on the Android-Device when my LCN-device sends a signal of move-detection.
