Is there a way to turn off phone screen while using Continuum?

[Travis Flenker]

I've been using continuum a fair amount and have come across what I see as a problem.

The phone screen never shuts off while using Continuum. I can't find any settings anywhere to control this - do they exist anywhere? Manually turning of the screen by pressing the power button causes Continuum to stop working so I'm guessing I'm out of luck.

Continuum is great, but this seems like a huge oversight considering the AMOLED screen on the 950.

Just save a black photo to your phone and add it to favorites. After you connect to the dock or wireless adapter, go to the photos app and open the black picture. Click so it's full screen.

Ah, that's a good work around. Thanks.

Still, a huge omission. Submitting to feedback now.

there is also an app called disable screen, just click that app on your phone when working on continuum mode.

Tried that but on Redstone it's showing the notifications banner across the top.

I am not on redstone but that happened once on mine before , after a os update, then contact the developer he updates the app. The everything worked fine again. So contact the developer and let him know this, since maybe he is not on redstone and didn't know about this.
