For clarity, are you requesting this as a developer or as a user?
ma...@jakedowns.com
as a developer. i looked into wake locks but it's not quite what im after. im going to look into media projection next but im not sure thats quite it either
i tried system_alert_window and it didnt seem to work
my project is unity based and has a dependency of another sdk that has lots of stuff going on
im going to try a reduced test case to eliminate extra variables
i found this dex mode manifest meta data attribute. so maybe that's a clue
will report back

Could you please confirm if the issue is also observed with pixel devices?
ma...@jakedowns.com
i don't have a pixel device to test on, only a samsung device. is this a pixel-specific issue tracker?
i guess what i'm wondering about is some kind of "projector" api where the phone can act as a projector, and an app can keep playing on an external (displayport) monitor, while the primary device (be it phone or tablet) is locked

Description
Is there some way that any app could be able to achieve the same effect? Namely, I'm working with Nreal AR glasses, and currently, if you lock the device, the AR display shuts off. if you tap the lock button once more, i see my app running ABOVE the lock screen on the Phone display, but the external display shows a grey lock screen with a clock.
is there some hidden permission, or the potential for a new permission that could allow an app to run on an external display while the phone is locked?
Thanks.
