iOS 10 Auto-Lock not working.

Hi,


I've just updated my iPhone 6s to iOS 10 and now auto-lock doesn't work, and the screen stays on unless I manually lock it and if I receive a notification while it is locked the screen stays lit, which depletes the battery quickly.


I've checked the settings under display & brightness (I have it set to 30 sec)

I've checked Assisted Touch is switch off under Accessibility

I've rebooted my iPhone

I've reset all settings


Has anybody else encountered this problem, or have any other ideas how to resolve it?


Thanks.

iPhone 6s, iOS 10

I tried this:


1. Turn off passcode at Settings > Touch ID & Passcode > Turn Passcode Off.

2. Restart your device.

3. Turn on passcode at Settings > Touch ID & Passcode > Turn Passcode On. (Do not delete your saved finger prints.)


This worked for me. Auto Lock works once more.
