Issue Details

  • When DeviceDisplay.KeepScreenOn was set to true, it was not working properly on Mac

Root Cause of the issue

  • UIApplication.SharedApplication.IdleTimerDisabled works only on iOS; it does not work on Mac.

Description of Change

Mac Catalyst support for screen-on functionality:

  • Added platform-specific logic in DeviceDisplayImplementation to use IOKit assertions for managing the "Keep Screen On" feature on Mac Catalyst, instead of modifying IdleTimerDisabled as on iOS.
  • Introduced the internal static IOKit class with P/Invoke wrappers for IOPMAssertionCreateWithName and IOPMAssertionRelease, enabling assertion management for display sleep prevention on Mac Catalyst.

Dependency and import updates:

  • Added System.Runtime.InteropServices and CoreFoundation imports to support native interop required for IOKit assertion management.

Issues Fixed

Fixes #26059

Tested the behaviour in the following platforms

  • - Windows
  • - Android
  • - iOS
  • - Mac

Pull request overview

This PR fixes the Mac Catalyst implementation of DeviceDisplay.KeepScreenOn by replacing the non-functional UIApplication.SharedApplication.IdleTimerDisabled approach with proper IOKit power management assertions. The fix adds platform-specific P/Invoke wrappers to interact with macOS's IOKit framework.

Key Changes

  • Introduces IOKit P/Invoke wrappers for Mac Catalyst to manage display sleep prevention through power management assertions
  • Adds conditional compilation to use IOKit-based implementation for Mac Catalyst while preserving the original IdleTimerDisabled approach for iOS
  • Implements assertion lifecycle management with a finalizer to ensure proper cleanup

Finalizers should not access native resources: Finalizers run on a separate finalizer thread and cannot safely call native code like IOPMAssertionRelease. The finalizer thread has no guarantee about the state of native interop at the time it runs, which could lead to crashes or resource corruption.

Consider implementing IDisposable pattern instead, or removing the finalizer entirely. Looking at other platform implementations (Windows, Android), they don't use finalizers for cleanup. The singleton nature of DeviceDisplayImplementation (created via DeviceDisplay.Current) means it typically lives for the application lifetime, so automatic cleanup at app shutdown should handle the assertion release.

If cleanup is critical, implement IDisposable:

public void Dispose()
{
    if (keepScreenOnId != 0)
    {
        PlatformIOKit.AllowUserIdleDisplaySleep(keepScreenOnId);
        keepScreenOnId = 0;
    }
}

Issue: #26059 - [Mac Catalyst] DeviceDisplay.KeepScreenOn not being respected on Mac OS
PR: #32708 - [Mac] DeviceDisplay.KeepScreenOn not being respected on Mac OS
Platforms Affected: Mac Catalyst / macOS (macOS 14 Sonoma, macOS 15 Sequoia)
Files Changed: 1 implementation, 0 test

Key Findings

  • UIApplication.SharedApplication.IdleTimerDisabled is iOS-only and silently ignored on Mac Catalyst, causing KeepScreenOn = true to be a no-op on macOS.
  • .ios.cs file extension compiles for both iOS and Mac Catalyst, so both platforms shared the broken iOS-only implementation.
  • Prior agent review (2026-03-19, commit 91a615d) found prior IOKit P/Invoke implementation had state inconsistency and missing thread-safety; author reworked implementation completely.
  • Current implementation (same commit 91a615d): switched from IOKit P/Invoke to NSProcessInfo.BeginActivity(NSActivityOptions.IdleDisplaySleepDisabled | NSActivityOptions.UserInitiated, "KeepScreenOn") with lock(locker) for thread safety. Removed IOKit interop file entirely — 1 file changed.
  • All prior reviewer concerns resolved; outdated unresolved review threads refer to removed code.
  • No test files changed; Gate SKIPPED (no PR tests detected).
  • Existing device test ScreenLock_Locks (Category=DeviceDisplay) is excluded on Mac Catalyst via trait filtering — pre-existing gap, not introduced by this PR.

Edge Cases / Discussion Notes

  • BeginActivity null return: Extremely unlikely per Apple docs; beginActivityWithOptions:reason: documented as never returning nil. In practice, not a concern.
  • Thread safety: lock(locker) added — matches Windows implementation pattern exactly.
  • State consistency: NSProcessInfo.EndActivity() has no failure mode (unlike IOPMAssertionRelease), so stored token always valid while active.
  • Background behavior: UserInitiated activities may be paused when app backgrounds — mirrors iOS behavior where IdleTimerDisabled is also foreground-only.

Fix Candidates

# Source Approach Test Result Files Changed Notes
PR PR #32708 #if MACCATALYST: use NSProcessInfo.BeginActivity(IdleDisplaySleepDisabled | UserInitiated, "KeepScreenOn") + lock(locker); #else (iOS): keep existing IdleTimerDisabled path. ⏳ PENDING (Gate skipped) DeviceDisplay.ios.cs 1 file, no custom P/Invoke, thread-safe.

🔧 Fix — Analysis & Comparison

Fix Candidates

# Source Approach Test Result Files Changed Notes
1 claude-opus-4.6 IOKit P/Invoke: IOPMAssertionCreateWithName("PreventUserIdleDisplaySleep") / IOPMAssertionRelease with lock(locker) + s_assertionId in #if MACCATALYST ✅ PASS (232 passed) 1 file (DeviceDisplay.ios.cs) Low-level macOS API; works but requires DllImport/IntPtr. More complex than PR.
2 claude-sonnet-4.6 Separate .maccatalyst.cs file using NSProcessInfo.BeginActivity(IdleDisplaySleepDisabled | UserInitiated) + #if !MACCATALYST guard in .ios.cs ✅ PASS (464 passed) 2 files (.ios.cs + new .maccatalyst.cs) Idiomatic MAUI file-split; same API as PR but in dedicated file. Cleaner separation.
3 gpt-5.3-codex NSProcessInfo.BeginActivity(NSActivityOptions.IdleDisplaySleepDisabled) — same as PR but WITHOUT UserInitiated flag ✅ PASS (696 passed) 1 file (DeviceDisplay.ios.cs) Minor PR variant; IdleDisplaySleepDisabled is the key flag; omitting UserInitiated loses semantic context.
4 gpt-5.4 (gemini unavailable) NSProcessInfo.BeginActivity(NSActivityOptions.IdleDisplaySleepDisabled | NSActivityOptions.AutomaticTerminationDisabled) ✅ PASS (928 passed) 1 file (DeviceDisplay.ios.cs) Uses different flag combo; AutomaticTerminationDisabled is not semantically appropriate for screen-on.
PR PR #32708 NSProcessInfo.BeginActivity(NSActivityOptions.IdleDisplaySleepDisabled | NSActivityOptions.UserInitiated, "KeepScreenOn") + lock(locker) + NSObject? keepScreenOnActivity token in #if MACCATALYST ⚠️ NOT VERIFIED (Gate skipped — no PR tests) DeviceDisplay.ios.cs Best flag combination: IdleDisplaySleepDisabled explicitly prevents display sleep; UserInitiated provides correct semantic context. Thread-safe. No custom P/Invoke.

Cross-Pollination

Model Round New Ideas? Details
claude-opus-4.6 2 No NO NEW IDEAS — Only two proper macOS APIs exist for preventing display sleep: IOKit assertions (Attempt 1) and NSProcessInfo.BeginActivity (PR + Attempts 2-4). All viable mechanisms covered.

Exhausted: Yes (all 4 models queried; cross-pollination confirms no new mechanisms available)

Selected Fix: PR's fix — NSProcessInfo.BeginActivity(IdleDisplaySleepDisabled | UserInitiated) — Reason: The PR uses the correct combination of flags. IdleDisplaySleepDisabled explicitly prevents display sleep (the key flag); UserInitiated provides proper semantic context to the OS, matching Apple's recommended usage for user-visible long-running operations. Thread-safe with lock(locker). No custom P/Invoke. Attempt 2 (separate .maccatalyst.cs file) is the strongest structural alternative — more idiomatic MAUI file organization — but uses the same API as the PR. Attempt 1 (IOKit) works but is unnecessarily low-level. Attempts 3 and 4 use incomplete flag combinations.

Summary

PR #32708 addresses a confirmed bug: UIApplication.SharedApplication.IdleTimerDisabled is silently ignored on Mac Catalyst, making DeviceDisplay.KeepScreenOn = true a no-op on macOS. This PR has been through a prior agent review cycle (2026-03-19) that requested changes on an older IOKit P/Invoke implementation; the author has since completely reworked the fix. The updated implementation uses NSProcessInfo.BeginActivity — the high-level Foundation API recommended by Apple — with proper thread safety and no custom interop.

Try-Fix exploration this cycle confirmed all viable macOS APIs for preventing display sleep were explored (IOKit P/Invoke ✅, NSProcessInfo variants ✅, separate file structure ✅). The PR's approach uses the most semantically correct flag combination and is the cleanest implementation.

Root Cause

UIApplication.SharedApplication.IdleTimerDisabled is an iOS-only API. On Mac Catalyst, DeviceDisplay.ios.cs compiles for both iOS and Mac Catalyst (due to the .ios.cs extension), so both platforms shared the same broken iOS-only implementation. The IdleTimerDisabled property is silently ignored on macOS, leaving KeepScreenOn permanently inactive on Mac Catalyst.

Fix Quality

The updated implementation is correct and clean:

  1. Correct API: NSProcessInfo.BeginActivity(NSActivityOptions.IdleDisplaySleepDisabled | NSActivityOptions.UserInitiated, "KeepScreenOn") is the Apple-recommended API for preventing display sleep from a Mac app. IdleDisplaySleepDisabled is the flag that explicitly prevents display sleep; UserInitiated provides correct semantic context to the OS.
  2. Thread safety: lock(locker) protects both GetKeepScreenOn() and SetKeepScreenOn() — consistent with the Windows implementation pattern.
  3. No state inconsistency: NSProcessInfo.EndActivity() has no failure mode (unlike IOPMAssertionRelease), so the stored token is always valid while active.
  4. Minimal change: 1 file modified. No custom P/Invoke, no additional files.
  5. Guard pattern: Early-return if ((keepScreenOnActivity is not null) == keepScreenOn) return; prevents redundant BeginActivity/EndActivity calls.
  6. All prior reviewer concerns resolved: The prior review's IOKit-specific concerns (state inconsistency, missing lock) are moot — the IOKit implementation was completely replaced.

One minor observation (non-blocking): If NSProcessInfo.BeginActivity returns null (extremely unlikely per Apple's documentation, which states beginActivityWithOptions:reason: never returns nil), keepScreenOnActivity would be null and GetKeepScreenOn() would return false despite intent. This is theoretical only.

Test coverage gap (pre-existing, not introduced by this PR): The ScreenLock_Locks, ScreenLock_Unlocks_Without_Locking, and ScreenLock_Locks_Only_Once device tests are excluded on Mac Catalyst via [Trait(Traits.UI, Traits.FeatureSupport.Supported)] filtering. No automated test currently validates KeepScreenOn behavior on Mac Catalyst. Suggest enabling or adding a Mac Catalyst-specific round-trip test.

Structural alternative (optional, non-blocking): Try-Fix Attempt 2 demonstrated that a separate .maccatalyst.cs file is a valid and idiomatic MAUI approach (no #if directives needed in .ios.cs). This is a viable refactor suggestion but is not required — the PR's #if MACCATALYST approach is also acceptable.

### Issue Details

- When DeviceDisplay.KeepScreenOn was set to true, it was not working
properly on Mac

### Root Cause of the issue

- UIApplication.SharedApplication.IdleTimerDisabled works only on iOS;
it does not work on Mac.

### Description of Change
**Mac Catalyst support for screen-on functionality:**

* Added platform-specific logic in `DeviceDisplayImplementation` to use
IOKit assertions for managing the "Keep Screen On" feature on Mac
Catalyst, instead of modifying `IdleTimerDisabled` as on iOS.
* Introduced the internal static `IOKit` class with P/Invoke wrappers
for `IOPMAssertionCreateWithName` and `IOPMAssertionRelease`, enabling
assertion management for display sleep prevention on Mac Catalyst.

**Dependency and import updates:**

* Added `System.Runtime.InteropServices` and `CoreFoundation` imports to
support native interop required for IOKit assertion management.
