Hello seliva_zhr,


This page here can help out with a possible explanation: Change the wallpaper on iPhone - Apple Support


In Settings > Wallpaper, check to see if 'Dark Appearance Dims Wallpaper' is enabled. If that is on then the device may dim the wallpaper based on ambient light around it.


Does it also seem to happen if you unlock the device?


If nothing else seems to help then a restart of the device can sometimes assist with odd issues that come up: Restart your iPhone - Apple Support


Cheers.
