iPhone 13 mini Auto-Lock Issue

[Resist]

Anyone else having issues with Auto-Lock where it dims and then locks the phone way earlier Thant the set time? I set mine to 2 minutes and around one minute the screen dims and 15 seconds later it's completely off and locks. Isn't it supposed to wait out the full 2 minutes before even dimming? And it certainly shouldn't lock so soon.

If it’s in Low Power mode the screen will turn off sooner than your settings

Well, mine is always set to Never Lock on all my iPhones so I can't say I've experienced this.

For testing purposes, what happens if you change the setting to something else? Is the time off on any of those as well?

Nope! In fact, I'm still dealing with an issue I've had with every version of iOS 15 where my phone refuses to lock at all on its own. It seems to be something tied to attention aware features. I've reported this bug numerous times, but it hasn't been fixed.

As someone noted above, though, it is supposed to lock faster (in 30 seconds, I think) in lower power mode.

It's not in low power mode. All the preset Auto Lock times time out way early except for the the 30 second preset. I never had this issue with my previous iPhone 7 Plus, so it's probably the newer iOS.

I'm not having this issue with my 11 Pro Max, iOS 15.5.

I WAS having an issue with attention awareness on that my phone would wake when I didn't want it to and unlock. So I turned attention awareness off.

I'm noticing the same think on my older iPad 6. I set Auto-Lock to 15 minutes and at 7 minutes the screen dimmed and then 30 seconds later the screen went dark.
