After using Siri via AirPods, screen stays on indefinitely in pocket
Running into a strange behavior with Siri via Bluetooth. Situation: with my phone in my pocket, I activate Siri using my AirPods and issue a command to play music. Siri finishes, and the music plays. Later (potentially much later, like, 30 mins later) I take my phone out of my pocket and discover that the screen is on, and has apparently been on since I used Siri. In the meantime, my phone has never been removed from my pocket.
This seems really odd to me. First of all, why would activating Siri cause my display to turn on if my phone is in my pocket? Second, why wouldn’t the screen at least turn off automatically?
This seems like a bug (it’s inconceivable that it’s a feature, since it drains your battery and doesn’t make any sense), but I’m surprised is hasn’t been fixed since the launch of the AirPods. The whole idea of them supporting Siri is to be able to use your phone without taking it out, right?
FWIW, I have my display auto-lock set to one minute. Doesn’t seem to make a difference. On an iPhone 7.
