This flow adds two variables.
The first one, global_screen_delay, gets set to 5 minutes ahead of your current time if the screen is off, 1 minute ahead if the screen is on.
The other variable gets set to the number 5 and 1. I'll get back to why.
The interesting thing about this flow is the trigger : Global Variable Date/Time:global_screen_delay, which is activated whenever the current time equals the variable.
What this basically does is enable any/all of your flows to be activated based on said variable instead of on a timer, which I find to be more flexible.
The second variable is in case you don't want a certain action to be done 5 times quicker because the screen is on.
Most of my flows are based off this variable, so be sure to use it if you want to use my other ones.
