Standby Mode no longer functioning on iPhone 15 Pro Max

Standby Mode is no longer functioning on my iPhone 15 Pro Max.

My screen shows this display but is more faded than what the image shows. The device is in Do Not Disturb mode and does not have Dim Screen toggled on.

I’ve turned it on and off again to no avail.

Would anyone know how to fix this?

Check Settings > StandBy.

Is “StandBy” on?
How is “Display” set? Is that what you mean by “Dim Screen”?

Could it be the Night Mode in Settings > Standby? Turn it off, restart your iPhone and turn it back on. Occasionally, toggling a setting as such may fix an issue.

Settings, Face ID & Passcode, ensure Lock Screen Widgets is turned on.
