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

That also happened to me. My batter ran down, and when recharged the auto-lock had changed To 30 sec from never. In "Settings>General the auto lock was greyed-out and it had turned on Battery Saver. I have done that and turned-off my passcode and restarted. Then the auto-lock has now disappeared completely and I'm stuck with 30 sec auto-lock. I have iOS 10.3.2. Help!!
