    I'm running into an issue where the lock screen won't appear at all while my game is running on a device. If I hit the power button to put the device to sleep, pressing it again will immediately take me to the game instead of showing the lock screen. The same goes for when the device goes to sleep normally.

    Is there some sort of setting that could cause this to happen? I've already made sure that I'm not requesting the wake lock permission in the manifest. It's pretty frustrating :neutral:

    Do you have any plugins that might alter the manifest?

    If you are in "Development Mode" this is the default behavior of the application.

    I know this is a very old thread, but it's also the first one to come up in a search. Is there a way to disable this behavior?

    When the game plays ads instead of showing the ad it shows the lock screen and ends up giving us lots of bug reports from our playtesters. We need these builds to be dev builds, but also be as close to release in behavior as possible. Thanks! :)
