Mark has been contributing to the project for many months now and among other things, made the Always-On feature possible in InfiniTime. -Now, let's take a look at InfiniTime 1.15! A lot of users have been waiting for this feature for a long time now : the Always-On Display (AOD). Implementing this feature on the PineTime was quite a challenge since the hardware is not designed for it. This is mainly because of the LCD display and its power hungry backlight. [@KaffeinatedKat](https://github.com/KaffeinatedKat) and [@mark9064](https://github.com/mark9064) however managed to make this possible by optimizing low-level drivers, fine-tuning some display settings and improving the state machine of the UI. Without going into too much details, the display is configured to use as little power as possible by reducing the number of colors that are displayed, by reducing the its refresh rate and by driving the backlight using a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) to its lowest visible level. +Now, let's take a look at InfiniTime 1.15!

This was a complex feature to implement and review, but it was worth it : InfiniTime runs for 2 to 3 days in this mode! I'm honestly impressed by how comfortable the InfiniTime feels when this feature is enabled together with the Raise-to-Wake and Lower-to-Sleep features!
