iPhone 13 stays lit I’ve had my iPhone 13 for a few months and the screen will not automatically darken after a period of non-use. I have it set to auto-lock at 2 minutes, but it doesn’t (always did until this week). And if I lock it manually, when I get a notification, the screen stays lit until I turn it off.

Hello Begrenzung,

Based on what you've told us, it sounds like you need to adjust when your iPhone automatically locks. You can learn how to adjust those settings: Keep the iPhone display on longer - Apple Support
