[Feature] Add sleep/wake timer to slideshow

The feature

Hi,

I don't know if this has been asked before, but I have a feature request for the slideshow on Android.

I made a custom photo frame using an older tablet and I run Immich on it most of the day. The only annoying thing is that I have to manually lock the tablet every evening, because there's no point in keeping the screen on all night.

Would it be possible to add some kind of sleep/wake timer to the slideshow? For example, when starting the slideshow you could set it to go to sleep at 23:00 and start again at 07:00.

I don't know if Immich can actually turn the screen off and back on, but even just showing a black screen during those hours and automatically continuing the slideshow afterwards would be enough for me.

One other thing I noticed is that when I leave the slideshow open in the Android app for a longer time, the tablet eventually locks itself. That's why I'm currently using Immich in the browser instead, where I don't seem to have that problem.

Thanks!

Hello, the slideshow feature isn't meant to be used as kiosk mode when we designed it

Have you taken a look into apps like ImmichFrame or ImmichKiosk, which were built specifically for that purpose?

Sorry, didn't know that! I'll look into those projects. Thanks for answering.
