Keeping photos onscreen without fading or disappearing

I sometimes use my phone and iPad to display logos or names at airport pickups.

i generally use an image from camera roll.

How do I prevent the image from wanting to “sleep” after several seconds - fading to 20% or disappearing altogether.

A tap on the screen will mostly (but not always) bring it back but this is a nuisance, especially if you’ve not realised it’s gone - and your visitor has walked by!

iPhone 13 mini, iOS 16

Hi motormouth1954,


To keep your screen on longer, you can change the auto-lock setting on your iPad by going to Settings > Display & Brightness > Auto-Lock.


Instructions for your iPhone are here: Keep the iPhone display on longer

Change when iPhone automatically locks
You can set how long it takes iPhone to automatically lock.
Go to Settings  > Display & Brightness > Auto-Lock, then choose a length of time.

Regards.
