The Lily® and select vívosmart® and vívomove® watches have a timeout setting that allows you to set the length of time before the screen backlight turns off. A longer timeout will allow the backlight to stay on longer but will decrease battery life, while a shorter timeout will cause the backlight to stay on for a shorter amount of time but will increase battery life. Since these watches do not feature an always-on display option, changing your timeout settings can help you manage how long the screen stays visible.
