Most owners of devices with a bitten apple have automatic locking set mainly to extend battery life and increase security. If you leave the device somewhere, it will lock itself after a certain period of time. But what to do if you don't want your device's screen to be locked with iOS Did it turn itself off after a certain time?

One of the main reasons you would want to do this is to use AirPlay mirroring. If your device locks during this process, you will have to unlock the device and restart the entire connection to continue mirroring. Another reason is reading long texts. Sometimes it can happen that you are only in the middle of the screen and the display suddenly turns off. Especially in the evening, at the lowest possible brightness, you will not even notice the screen darkening, which occurs a few seconds before the lock itself. Fortunately, there is an option in the settings to turn off automatic locking so that the display remains lit until you turn it off yourself.
As iOS set the device screen not to turn off by itself
- Run it Settings.
- Go to the section Display and brightness.
- Continue to Lockout.
- Set the option here Never.

From now on, the display on your device will never turn off by itself without your intervention. It doesn't matter if you're in an app, listening to songs, or just putting your device down and walking away. However, most of the time it is, for example, after reading or after mirroring, to return the settings back to the previous value. Since you can accidentally put your unlocked device somewhere that can fall into the wrong hands, this is a pretty serious security risk.
It doesn't work on my 6S, it doesn't work, it doesn't work. I have the wake-up turned off. I restarted the phone and it's still only set to 30s and the toggle is greyed out.
hmm, yes. The phone must not be in low battery condition.
I have 50% battery and I can't unclick, it's locked, it's still there for 30 seconds 😭
Hi, I miss having the opportunity to iPhone when powered from the mains, e.g. in a car, a permanently running lock screen with a clock and notifications, or solve the same problem with some permanently turned on screensaver. I repeat..: Only when powered from the mains..! Any ideas..? Thanks..
