HI,

I've looked but I haven't found an answer to this. I know that if you want to keep an iPad awake you would generally go to Settings - Autolock and then make the adjustments from there. I'm wondering whether it is possible to keep an iPad awake on the lock screen (that is, before you enter the passcode). My iPad Air2 keeps going to sleep after a few seconds of inactivity, no matter what the settings on Autolock (even never has no effect). I'm trying to do a screencast (streaming from iPad to Mac) demonstrating the lock screen, but it keeps going dark as soon as I don't do anything on the iPad. I can think of a couple of workarounds, but I curious whether it is possible to keep the iPad awake (it is, by the way, plugged in).
