I had mobilesheets set to while viewing scores. It was not on a score but on the songs library and it ran my battery down to zero. I thought there was some failsafe to shut it off after an hour. I currently have it set to never because I can't trust it won't run my device down if I walk away. Can somebody tell me if there's a way to set this? As it is I see no real difference between the Always and the When Viewing Scores setting. I am on iOS 26.2 and MS 3.9.34

What do you have the screen timeout set to in the OS settings? MobileSheets is just switching off the flag that keeps the screen on when you get back to the library screen. At that point, the screen will turn off based on the OS settings you've selected to determine how long to wait before the screen shuts off. If the screen lock is on in MobileSheets, and it's been an hour without activity, then it will switch the lock off, but once again, the screen will only turn off if the OS screen timeout is set up appropriately. Given that you can set "Auto-Lock" to "Never" in the iOS settings, I need to check whether you've done that.
