About StayAwake
Keep your computer awake with one click. Prevent sleep, screen lock & display timeout with quick timers. No tracking, no sign-up.

StayAwake keeps your computer awake with a single click — no more interrupted downloads, frozen presentations, or locked screens in the middle of a long read.
Just like a cup of coffee for your computer, StayAwake temporarily prevents your system from going to sleep, so nothing stops your work until you say so.
⚡ WHY STAYAWAKE?
Your operating system's sleep settings don't know when you're watching a dashboard, waiting for a large file to download, rendering a video, or presenting to a room. StayAwake overrides sleep mode and screen timeout only while you need it — then hands control right back.
✅ KEY FEATURES
One-click toggle — instantly keep your system awake, and switch off just as fast
Quick timers — stay awake for 30 minutes, 1, 2, 4, or 8 hours, then sleep settings automatically resume
Display control — choose "Screen on" to prevent display sleep and screen lock, or "Screen may sleep" to let the display turn off while the system keeps running in the background
Live awake counter — see exactly how long your session has been active
Total kept-awake stats — track your cumulative awake time at a glance
Status at a glance — the toolbar badge shows ON whenever StayAwake is active
🎯 PERFECT FOR
Large downloads and file transfers that must not pause
Your long AI prompts
Presentations, demos, and screen sharing without the screen going black
Watching videos, webinars, or online courses without touching the mouse
Monitoring dashboards, stock tickers, and live data feeds
Long builds, renders, uploads, backups, and batch jobs
Reading long articles or documentation without the screen dimming
Kiosk-style and second-monitor setups
🔒 PRIVACY FIRST
No tracking, no analytics, no ads
No account or sign-up required
Works completely offline
Uses only Chrome's built-in Power API — no access to your browsing data
Lightweight Manifest V3 extension, under 1 MB
🚀 HOW TO USE
Click the StayAwake icon in your toolbar
Flip the toggle to ACTIVE, or tap a quick timer (30m–8h)
Choose whether the screen stays on or may sleep
Toggle off — or let the timer expire — and normal sleep settings return automatically
StayAwake is a simple, free alternative to apps like Caffeine, Amphetamine, and Insomnia — right in your browser, on Windows, macOS, Linux, and ChromeOS. Stop your computer from sleeping, prevent screen lock, disable screen timeout, and keep your display on — only when you want it.
