iPhone Question

[Richard A Thackeray]

It’s a new SE model

Over the past week or so, thescreen brightness has been changing without my altering anything
When l slide it back up in ‘display brightness’, it might be at about a 1/3rd
I haven’t changed anything, as far as l know

Suggestions please?
Thankyou

When you scroll up to view this...

Press & hold the brightness to show...

Make sure the ‘True Tone’ is off.
Hope that helps

As suggested above by Adam4868 find a child to fix it. My grandchildren certainly know more about such things than I do.

In addition to save your battery activate the dark mode and turn off off all the permissions in settings to send data back to Apple. Also change your mail settings so it's not constantly checking for mail.
These guys have got the best tips.

All 3 are 'off', when I opened it

It is most likely auto brightness which is an accessibility option, not in the display settings.
Got to Settings > Accessibility > Display & Text Size > Auto-Brightness

If on it adjusts to background light.

The one on the right apparently...

Can a smartphone ever be too clever for its own good? Now I that would make an interesting thread.
