Hello Happygus,


Thank you for reaching out in Apple Support Communities. To darken the Lock Screen on an iPhone, you have the option to low the brightness. This will adjust the brightness for both the Lock Screen and the Home Screen of your iPhone. Here's how:



Adjust brightness in Control Center
1. On your iPhone X or later, or your iPad with iOS 12 or iPadOS, swipe down from the top-right corner of your display. On your iPhone 8 or earlier, swipe up from the bottom edge of your display.

2. Drag the brightness bar  up or down to adjust the brightness.

Learn more about the display on iPhone X and later. Learn more about Control Center on your iPhone or iPad.

If you're referring to turning off the Always-On display, you can go to Settings > Display & Brightness > turning off Always On Display.


Kind regards.
