Display Brightness on my SE2020 Iphone

[Sean14]

Help? I have just upgraded to the above phone from an Iphone 6 and whatever I do to adjust the brightness ( I need it on maximum ) it has darkened itself back everytime I go to use it. Never happened on the old phone. You would set it and that would be it! Anyone out there who knows the answer? Thank you.

Hi @Sean14 Check to see if there is an auto brightness setting as this may override manual settings.

Thank you. I am going to settings and sliding up brightness to max - and all is well. Yet, when I go back to use phone again - it is darker. I go back to settings and it has automatically slid back to a darker tone!

@Sean14 Sounds like there is a default brightness set so when you change the brightness it is only temporary. Check all the settings, maybe it's in a different menu.

Settings >Display and brightness and turn off "automatic"

About brightness levels

When auto-brightness is on, you'll notice that the brightness slider on your device moves according to changing light conditions.

You can turn auto-brightness on or off in Settings > Accessibility > Display & Text Size.30 Mar 2021
