Sleep mode

Sleep mode saves battery power by putting HTC 10 into a low power state while the
display is off. It also stops accidental button presses when HTC 10 is in your bag.
Switching to Sleep mode
To turn off the display and switch to Sleep mode, briefly press the POWER button. You
can also double-tap the lock screen.
HTC 10 also automatically goes into Sleep mode when it's left idle for a while. You can
change the time before HTC 10 sleeps by setting the screen timeout. For details, see
