iPhone 14 Pro Max locks itself when I’m typing after watching videos

When scrolling through instagram reels I will sometimes open the comments to post a comment or read them, while this is happening the phone will lock itself in the middle of typing or reading comments, it doesn’t happen when videos are playing

iPhone 14 Pro Max, iOS 17

When Autolock is activated, it secures your screen after a period of inactivity, typically when there's no interaction like tapping or swiping. However, this feature doesn't function the same way when you're watching videos. Even if there's no active touch or interaction during video playback, Autolock usually doesn't engage to lock the screen, allowing uninterrupted viewing without the screen timing out or locking itself. This distinction ensures a seamless video-watching experience without frequent interruptions due to screen locking.
