Description

I am no longer providing support for this application. I have changed it from paid to free. If it works for you great, if not feel free to uninstall.

The sole purpose of this App is to prevent Bluetooth Audio Devices, such as speakers, from turning off when no audio is playing. For example if you have a Bluetooth speaker that you always want to be on and connected, but the speaker turns it self off after a certain amount of time this program should stop that auto turn off. Additionally Tasker plug-in support has been included to allow for automated turning on and off of this service.

Simply make sure the Bluetooth Audio Device is paired & connected to your Bluetooth equipped Android device and activate the Bluetooth Keep Alive by opening the app and pressing the toggle button. Your audio device should not auto-turn off now as long as you are within range of them and the Bluetooth connection remains active. This is mainly useful for alarm clocks / Bluetooth docks, or Bluetooth speakers.

Also this program has been used to prevent Goggle Maps Navigation audio cues from being cut off during navigation. This was accomplished by using a short time delay like .1-.08 minutes.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

User's Reivew

5 ★Works perfectly. Denkz
3 ★Little to no help...
1 ★Not reliable
5 ★Works great
5 ★The app does what it says! I use it to keep my bluetooth speakers on so they can be used as my alarm in the morning. Developer is very easy to work with which is a huge plus! Would be nice if root users could hide the notification though.
3 ★It's not in my Tasker plugins, though. It seems it would make more sense to make the service on/off available via an Android shortcut, then you can automate it with AutoShortcut & Tasker, or a ton of other apps, and not worry about Tasker specifically.
5 ★Tasker integration is a welcome addition. I use this, along with Null Keyboard on my Note 8 to keep my external keyboard functioning properly.
1 ★This app made no difference whatsoever. I would like a refund.
5 ★I use a headset connected by Bluetooth to my sgs3. I was completely missing navigation instructions from Google maps due to the delay every time Bluetooth kicked in. This app keeps bt active and I hear every syllable. Works great. I'm not yet sure about what this does to battery life...might be wise to use your car charger!
5 ★I used BT Keep active to use a bluetooth keyboard with my Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 Tablet. It tricked my tablet into thinking my tablet was using the bluetooth and prevented the awful Samsung default on-screen keyboard from turning itself on as the default. It works 98% of the time, which has been awesome. I set the timer at a one minute setting. Sweet. Thanks.
5 ★When playing Audible on my bluetooth speaker I was missing one or two words between pauses in speaking. I set the delay to .01 so you can hear the speaker "hiss" all the time. That did it! Works great worth a buck if you have a simular problem to mine.
4 ★Still disconnects after 4-5 hours and has many issues after that but its much better than without the app! Looking forward to more updates!
