How to disable auto-lock for specific apps

Hello komrads, I would like to disable auto-lock for google maps or in other words I would like google maps to stay on while I'm following the directions. From searching the intertubes it seems the old ioses allowed you to, but ios 14 doesn't or has hidden it. Please advice.

Hello Lars Hansen,


Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities. We understand that you're wanting to change the screen lock feature by app. Since this isn't a feature within iOS, you'll want to reach out to the app developer to see if there are available options: How to contact an app developer


Apple also always welcomes feedback. Leave yours here: Feedback - iPhone


Thanks again, and take care.
