Apps audio goes of when Auto-lock is activated

Hi folks I have a very annoying problem with my iPhone 3G, when I’m listening to music using FlyCast and 95.8 Capital FM apps the music stops when Auto-lock is activated after 2 minutes… I normally turnoff auto-lock but this reduces the battery life off the phone. Is there any thing I can do to prevent this from happening?
Thanks
Bernie

No - this is a function of the way the apps are written. It is possible for apps to continue audio with the screen locked (some of the white noise apps do that, for example).
Find the apps in the app store on iTunes, and there's a link to the developers website and support page. If available, submit feedback to the developer asking them to update the app to play audio when the iPhone is locked.

  • IPhone 6 audio stops playing with auto lock and when earphones pulled out

    When playing an mp3 through Dropbox on my iPhone 6, by audio has been freezing when the phone goes into auto lock. It never used to do this, and I don't think I've changed any settings.
    I tried playing music through iTunes to see if it was a dropbox issue. The same thing happens. It also happens if I"m listening through the earphones and I pull the earphones out of the phone. The audio just turns off. iTunes is still open, but it stops playing.
    Does anyone know if this is an iPhone 6 thing?

    Thanks Meg,
    glad to know it's normal.
    So my problem remains with the audio freezing when the phone goes into auto lock then. This didn't used to happen.
    cheers,

    No, that shouldn't happen. Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the apple appears?

  • Speak Screen halts when Auto Lock comes on

    If I am using Speak Screen to have a book read to me from Kindle, and Auto Lock comes on, Speak Screen stops reading.
    I have friends who use this same functionality who say their phone keeps reading to them when their phone is locked.  Does anyone know what setting I should use to do this?  If I set Auto Lock to "Never" it keeps reading, but then my battery drains quickly because the screen stays on.
    Thanks!

    If you search the forum for "lossless" you will discover that this is a problem/bug anyone who is using lossless is having. Currently there is no fix, other than to not use lossless. You can send feedback stating your dissatisfaction with this:

  • Is there an app that shows on your locked screen what time the auto-lock was activated...so you know if anyone has looked at your phone?

    Id like an app that shows what time your iphone was locked, so you know if anyone has looked at your phone while you've left it, say on a desk at work?

    If your location on the map is off press the MENU button (lower left corner of your phone).  Then when the next screen appears Touch "my location" and it will move the your blue colored location ICON to your current location.
    Also, you can touch the tower ICON to see the tower's SSID, SID, and Received signal strength.  WIKI has good definitions for these acronyms.  If you go to CELLS (top of screen) you can also see the RSSI and the overview shows the signal strength in %.

  • Audio goes off when iPad goes sleep (youtube)

    Is it possible to listen music from youtube (safari) so that the music doesn't stop when iPad shuts off its screen? I'm using youtube to play music to my computer through Airplay and it ***** that I have to keep the iPad on all the time because if the screen goes black the music stops too.

    Try Chrome it works better for me.
    If that doesn't work start your video, close the ipad, then double click the home button and press play on the music controls.
    Should start playing whatever was loaded in the browser.

  • Home Button goes unresponsive when iPad locks, accompanied with Safari crashes

    As the title says, I've taken notice that my iPad is slowly deteriorating performance wise. Safari has been increasing crashes over the past week, to the point where I think something is up if it DOESN'T crash within the last 10-30mins. The browser will freeze, and boot me out to the Home Screen.
    I am now at the point where, once my iPad goes black after not fiddling with it for awhile, the Home Button will not bring me to the Lock Screen unless I double click it for the mini-music controls to appear. These things seem to have started appearing only after I updated to the latest iOS 5.0.1 update.
    My iPad has suffered no outside trauma, the battery rarely gets to less than 5% life, and I've disabled unneeded and unused features, such as many of the Spotlight Searches. I do however, keep roughly 6-8 tabs open in Safari regularly, as I like to hop tabs as my attention span demands lol (that in itself may be the reason for the browser crashes..).
    Does anyone else seem to have any similar issues, or know that it might be a firmware/hardware problem that is documented somewhere? I have seen other threads about unresponsive iPads/iPhones but nothing that matches my problem specifically.

    I'm hoping I wont have to get to that point. But thats what its looking like its coming to. I haven't come across anyone else with the issue.

  • Bluetooth and Auto-Lock

    I have an interesting problem... Blue tooth Audio gets real "choppy" when Auto-lock enables and when I wake up the Ipad the distortion goes away. I am using Sennheiser 400's for my headset but I suspect it is something in how the Ipod goes into Auto-lock mode. The same issue does not occur for a wired connection. Any ideas other than click on never for Auto-Lock?

    No promises but a system Reset cures many ills and takes but a minute to perform:
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.
    A Reset does NOT delete apps, photos, movies, music or any other data. A Reset does NOT delete any settings for email, network access, etc.
    Also, you might wish to download the 4.2 User Guide. Pay special attention to page 170.

  • Auto-lock is not working after last update

    After installing the newest IOS update the auto-lock features quit working. It was set to auto-lock after 5 minuets of inactivity, I have reset that to 2 minuets and it still does not auto-lock. If I forget to manually lock it after using it my battery runs down.
    About the same time that I did the IOS update I installed the Printer Pro app from the App Store. I have deleted this app from my IPAD but auto-lock still does not work.

    Have you tried resetting your iPad?
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
    No data will be lost.

  • IPad Browser seems to Disconnect/time out after Auto Lock

    After iPad auto locks, it seems like the browser (Safari and Chrome have both been tested) disconnects or times out. When I unlock the iPad, the pages need to reload or re-establish a connection - and because of the apparent disconnect I am forced to log back into the web page I was on. How can I prevent this disconnect so I can utilize ipads easily in my office? It's so much easier than lugging around a laptop from client to client.
    Background: I utilize a few iPads for my business. My EMR software is web based, which means I can use anything with a browser (ipad, laptop, desktop, etc) to log in and use the program. The program itself has an auto log off at 60 minutes, but on my iPads we don't make it that long. We will log into the web site, begin our day but need to set down the iPad when working with clients which can take 20 minutes or more. Our iPads auto lock for security reasons. When we unlock the iPads to continue working, the browser has to, essentially, re-establish a connection to the site - so it is not maintaining an active connection in that browser.  The only thing I have found that helps is disabling the auto lock but that is unacceptable as a long term solution.
    It's not the program or the programs site - my laptops work fine as long as I disable hibernation. If it were my network, both laptops and ipads would have the same issue when the wifi signal was lost. What's more, it will happen on other pages - like my bank site or even shopping.
    So how can I keep the browser's connection active even when auto locked?
    Thanks!

    Reset your phone:
    Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release.

    Hi!
    I want to use the InterAppAudioHost example as host and then use a drumkit app as node.
    Unfortunately I haven’t found any Drum Kit App that supports IAA and can be used as a node. I only find big drum kit apps, like GarageBand that works as a host.
    Do you know any good Drum Kit app that support InterAppAudio and work as a node?

  • I recently did the iOS 7.0.2 update, now I'm unable to purchase apps. "App could not be purchased at this time. Please try again later. ". I have tried a few of the suggestions and nothing has worked. Reset,change auto lock time on main screen, now what??

    I recently did the iOS 7.0.2 update, now I'm unable to purchase apps. "App could not be purchased at this time. Please try again later. ". I have tried a few of the suggestions and nothing has worked. Reset,change auto lock time on main screen, change language setting. Now what???

    This sorted it for me:
    Backup your iPhone to iCloud (I believe backing up to iTunes will work too). Now go to "Settings --> General --> Reset --> Erase All Content and Settings" to completely restore your iPhone to factory settings. Assuming you've backed up to iCloud, you'll be asked when setting up your iPhone if you want to restore from an iCloud backup. Choose that option and once your iPhone has restored itself from your backup, this annoying problem will finally be gone! (was for me anyway).
    To restore from an iTunes backup, connect your iPhone to your computer, load iTunes. Click the File menu and select Devices > Restore from Back up.

  • Goes into auto lock every few minutes

    My iPad is getting slower to startup, this last startup was difficult to initiate. Keeps going into auto lock, especially with any handling of the left hand shorter side of the iPad.

    It could be set up that way. The iPad will go to sleep when it hasn't received input after a specified period of time. Check the settings. Settings>General>Auto Lock> How long is it set before it goes to sleep?
    And of course, you aren't being specific as to when this happens, so if you post back and say that this happens while you are using it .....

  • When playing YouTube in background the phone stays on and does not auto lock and if it is auto locked and you receive a text it will stay on / lit even in the lock screen

    Mine and my wifes iphon 5s is having way too many problems for today's technology, when using iTunes music app from the lock screen if you press pause from the lock screen it stays the same not like before when you paused the music the play buttons would disappear but now they just stay there, and when playing YouTube videos in the background from safari and the phone is in lock screen and you receive a text the screen will stay lit until you turn it off yourself and also the same thing happens in the home screen if your playing YouTube from safari in the background the phone won't auto dim of auto lock after any amount of time it will stay on forever these problems need to be fixed, also the wifi is not working like it used to and the LTE and 3G data are slow, slower then the 3GS when ios 6 came out. Please fix thank you, loyal customers for 8 years and own almost every product you sell, thanks again

    Any number of things could have caused the phone to do this. If after the reset you are experiencing additional problems, the next step in the troubleshooting process is a restore from a backup. Make sure you have one before you start the restore process. If that does not improve things, then you may have to restore as a new device. Remember, restoring as a new device will delete all data off the phone. Make sure all of your pictures are imported to the computer and all other data is synced to supported applications on the computer before restoring as new. See this support document about backups http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946, and this about restoring the phone. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

  • Auto-locks even when I am using application!!  Please help

    Hi there..
    My iPhone autolocks even when I am using application on my iPhone!! eg. Using tomtom or playing a game!! Anyone had simillar experiance?
    My phone is setup to suto lock if inactive for 2 minutes. So using an application should be considered an activity and auto-lock function should not kick in. Please correct me if i am wrong.
    Many thanks
    Raf

    Inactivity is judged by the iPhone as a lack of user input (aka touching it) for 2 minutes. Being in an App will not change this feature.
    The only solution is to change your autolock settings.

  • Hi i am using inphone 5 when i am downloading whats app Audio Notes where it it downloading i am not able to find

    hi i am using inphone 5 when i am downloading whats app Audio Notes where it it downloading i am not able to find

    If you mean that the iphone 5 *was* previously activated and now it asks to be activated again, then..
    Did you change SIM cards (and is the phone locked to a carrier or not)?
    Was the iphone previously jailbroken?  (Did you buy it new from Apple or a carrier, or was it from a "third party"?)
