Why does my screen on my iPhone 16 pro max not shut off when it is idle
[Re-Titled by Moderator]
iPhone 16 Pro Max, iOS 18
I'm with the same problem(iphone 16 pro) even with the always on display when a notification appears while locked the screen keeps awake until i manually lock the phone, i've checked and the raise to wake is also turned of.
Because you have the Always On feature enabled in Settings/Display & Brightness.
I was in this position too. Noticed yesterday that my phone was quite warm after being supposedly asleep in my bag. Didn’t think anymore about it till this morning when I noticed the screen wasn’t sleeping as it should after 30 seconds.
After reading this discussion I went to check my settings, but rebooted first.
I remembered changing my display zoom settings to larger text the previous day, so I switched back to default. Unfortunately now I’m not sure if the reboot or reverting this setting fixed it 🤦🏻 Turning larger text back on didn’t cause the same issue to reoccur though 🤔
Nope it’s set to default 30 seconds its driving e crazy I can’t think of any other thing it could possible be
Nope like I said earlier that’s the FIRST thing I checked. What else could it be ? Because it’s NOT that

You said "Nope it’s set to default 30 seconds"
There is no time setting at all for Always On Display, it is ON or OFF, which is why I assumed you checked “Auto Lock” which DOES have a 30 second setting, and did not check Always On Display.

Notifications are processed in foreground, so the screen will come on for a few seconds. If you are looking at the screen at that time Face ID will unlock it.
Yes this is driving me nuts, display just wakes up and refuses to go off till phone is manually locked.
Always-on display is off. Raise to wake is off too. Auto-lock is 30sec
Thank you. That fixed it. 😊
it was the always on feature. I disabled it.

Why won't my iPhone 16 Pro Max screen turn off when idle?
