How do I permanently disable automatic screen dimming on my iPhone?

Absolutely sick to death of my screen dimming by itself.


Yes.. I’ve taken the ridiculous steps they say I have to take to keep my phone from dictating my view..and not one of them works.

No-my phone isn’t overheated.

No- to each suggestion I keep reading over and over and over again…. and half the time..the actual button or system description doesn’t exist to begin with or has such a labyrinthine number of commands to make a simple change…that one forgets what the **** they started out trying to fix to start with.

Instead of ranting, why not describe WHEN it dims and what you are doing at the time.

Is it about to time out?

You have more courage than I do. When I see a post which is written in anger with absolutely no clue what they've tried or haven't tried, I just walk away. People seem to not understand you attract more bees with honey as opposed to vinegar.
