The screen on my iPhone 8 Plus keeps dimming for no reason in the middle of active usage. I restored the phone to factory settings and it worked as expected. But as soon as I restored MY settings the issue returned. All the screen brightness settings appear normal. I haven't adjusted anything on that front since purchasing the phone last year. Any thoughts? I'd hate to have to manually restore everything if there's a hidden issue. Thanks!
Well...this may be the iPhone equivalent of "unplugging it and plugging it back in". I disabled the auto-brightness setting and re-enabled it - and wouldn't you know it worked? After all the hard resets, turning off the phone and turning it back on, and restoring the device, I never thought to simply toggle the feature. At least the phone got some unexpected maintenance. Thanks, Lawrence!

Go to Settings/General/Accessibility and check the setting for Auto Brightness.
