Configure screen timeout for corporate Android devices

Microsoft Intune now supports a Screen timeout setting in the Android Enterprise settings catalog, letting you specify how many seconds pass before the screen turns off.

What changed

Configure it under Devices > Manage devices > Configuration > Create > New policy > Android Enterprise > Settings catalog . The value must stay at or below Time to lock screen and applies to fully managed and dedicated devices on Android 9 and later, and corporate-owned work profile devices on Android 15 and later.

Why it matters

Device-management changes can affect policy processing, reporting, app delivery or support workflows across managed endpoints.

Known limitations
