Don't Sleep! is a lightweight app which allows you to manage the screen timeout and keep the screen on via the push of a button.

This application can be used to prevent your phone from sleeping (instead of modifying the Display Timeout in Settings, you can do this via the push of a button), or to set a sleep timer which you can use when watching videos on YouTube, or Netflix, or for any app which uses a Wakelock.

The application also supports setting a timer for pausing any media that is playing back, such as YouTube, or any Music Players.

The application adds a Tile which you can use as a shortcut to prevent your phone from sleeping, or set a timer for your screen to turn off.

In case the app appears not to work correctly on your device, please contact me with the problem and the device make/model (it appears not all devices support the way the application tries to keep the screen awake).
Added option to disable timeout for the "Don't Sleep!" feature, optimized app, replaced option to turn off screen with option to pause media playback.
Allows an app to create windows using the type TYPE_APPLICATION_OVERLAY, shown on top of all other apps.
Allows using PowerManager WakeLocks to keep processor from sleeping or screen from dimming.
Allows applications to access information about networks.
Allows an application to receive the ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED that is broadcast after the system finishes booting.
