How to turn off automatic sleep on iphone?

My iPhone keeps automatically going to sleep, and it's frustrating when I'm trying to read something or follow a recipe. I want to control when my screen turns off. How do I disable the automatic sleep function on my iPhone?

Easy peasy! Just head to your iPhone 'Settings', then 'Display & Brightness', and you'll see 'Auto-Lock'. Change it from there. Think of it like adjusting your own bedtime; you decide when it's time to sleep or stay awake! 😉

For iPhone automatic sleep (called Auto-Lock), you need to go into 'Settings', then 'Display & Brightness', and finally 'Auto-Lock'. You can set it to 'Never' or choose a longer time like 5 minutes. Just a heads up, setting it to 'Never' will drain your battery faster.

Yaar, iPhone pe automatic sleep off karna is super simple. Go to Settings > Display & Brightness > Auto-Lock. You can set it to Never. But actually, battery life pe farak padta hai haan. So keep that in mind.

Ah, iPhone sleep mode! If only my body had an 'off' switch for sleep sometimes, especially after a long day. For the phone, it's in Settings, Display & Brightness, and then Auto-Lock. Set it to 'Never'. Just don't forget to lock it manually, or your battery will be more tired than I am on a Monday morning!
