Keep a Mac Awake from the Browser

How AwakeMode uses wake lock and what conditions can pause it.

AwakeMode requests wake lock through the browser and keeps your computer from sleeping while the session is active.

Key constraints:

  • The tab must stay open.
  • Visibility and power settings can affect lock persistence.
  • We surface state changes immediately so you can react.
