To those of you using OLEDX to have the always on screen, does yours after a few minutes go very dim to where you can barely see it? When it’s on for the first few minutes it looks beautiful (pic of my screen below) but after about 4 minutes it gets extremely dim. Not sure it’s supposed to do this?

I have it using guided access to prevent the screen from timing out.

Sorry for the mis spell in the title, won’t let me edit

That’s a feature from apple to reduce the chances of burn in. If you force it to stay bright always then you might have issues with burn in.

So it’s not truly a always on display then? It jumps every 3 minutes to prevent burn in, but it’s nit consistent. Some times it just get very very dim, others the screen goes totally black.

Seems the phone sends ALL calls directly to voicemail when the app is running also, I guess due to whatever the guided access does.
