iPhone goes darker outside in shade. I can’t make it lighter screen.?

When I’m outside my iPhone 12 automatically goes to a darker screen. I have adjusted to brightest setting and it stays darker. How can I stop my phone from going darker outside?

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 15

Hello Mls1978,


You can turn Auto-Brightness off by following these step:


  1. Tap Settings
  2. Tap Accessibility
  3. Tap Display & Text Size
  4. Scroll down to and toggle Auto-Brightness off


This should stop the screen from changing.

Have a good day.
