Is there a way to have the magic leap device with password not require a password if the device is in standby mode?
I would like a user to be able to take off the headset and have it idle for a certain amount of time without requiring re-sign-in when the device is worn again but return to a locked sleep state if a certain amount of time has elapsed without the user putting the headset back on.
From what I understand, currently my standby/sleep options with a passcode enabled are 1) lock as soon as a face is not detected, or 2) turn off standby mode and my device will stay awake until it dies or is powered off. Is there any in between setting?
Currently, you cannot adjust the amount of time that needs to pass before the passcode is required. This feature is not currently on our roadmap but, I will share your feedback to our voice of customer team.
When the device is connected to power there is a workable solution by setting Standby Mode on, Sleep mode on, and setting a sleep mode timer and an automatic shut down timer. For example, with a sleep mode timer at 2 minutes, and automatic shut down after 15 minutes of sleep, the device will be:
in standby mode for the first two minutes (not requiring a sign in)
asleep (not requiring a sign in) from minute 2 to minute 15
shut down (therefore requiring sign in) after 17 minutes
HOWEVER, these settings only function this way when the device is connected to power. When not connected to power it seems all these settings are ignored and over-ridden as soon as the device stops detecting a face. I have tried setting the Battery Mode to be “Maximum Performance” but saw no change in the behavior described.
Is there a way to have the settings be consistent with and without power? If not, is there a planned fix for this in future OS versions?
This is not currently on our roadmap. However, I have reported your feedback to our voice of customer team. You are correct that the current options are either having standby completely disabled or it disabling as soon as the face is not detected.
Have you considered using iris ID to decrease the amount of effort to sign in.
To be clear, in v1.12 there is a third option (detailed in my previous answer) if the device is connected to power. However, when not connected to power there are only the two options as you described. Having different behavior with and without power seems like an OS bug.
Iris detection is a good idea to help. Unfortunately, we want new/multiple users to be able to use the device without needing to create a new user profile for each user (since our devices are in Lock Task Mode).
In summary, my feedback is:
have the device observe the standby/sleep settings regardless of connection to power
have an option in the automatic shut down timer for “0 minutes” (e.g. shut down immediately after sleep – skipping sleep – so the device is either awake or requires a password to log back in)
have commands to set the Standby/Sleep/Shutdown options from the android debug bridge
