Always On should work on your device. See the following on how to turn it on:


Set display preferences for when StandBy is on

You can choose how long to have your iPhone display stay on when StandBy is on.


Go to Settings  > StandBy > Display. Then choose one of the following: 


Automatically: The display turns off when iPhone isn’t in use and the room is dark.


After 20 Seconds: The display turns off after 20 seconds.


Never: The display stays on as long as StandBy is on.”
