Are you tired of seeing your iPhone screen getting turned off again and again while you are watching something, reading, or trying to use your phone hands-free?
In this guide, we have shared instructions on how you can stop your iPhone’s screen from turning off and stay on until you lock it manually by pressing the side button.
Stop iPhone Screen From Turning Off
- Unlock your iPhone and launch Settings.
- Scroll down and tap on the Display & Brightness option.
- Here, tap on the Auto-Lock option.
- On the next page, choose Never. You can also choose a longer auto-lock time instead of selecting never.
- Exit the Settings app.
That’s it, now your iPhone’s screen will stay on for a longer period of time and will only be turned off when you press the side button. This will let you use your iPhone hands-free without worrying about its screen turning off.
When using the Never option or a longer auto-lock setting, keep in mind that:
- Your iPhone screen staying on for extended periods of time will use more battery.
- Since an iPhone won’t lock itself automatically, anyone can pick up your iPhone and use it if you leave it unattended.
- This setting should only be used when needed, and you should change back to a shorter time later.
That’s it, this is how you can change the auto-lock setting and prevent your iPhone’s screen from turning off automatically.
