On my 5S: I have it off in display accommodations, yet when I turned the phone on, it automatically goes to 71%! It will stay at zero when I turn it down either in settings or the control center, but the next time I boot the phone it goes back up to 71%; how can I make it stay at 0 if that’s what I want?

Hi Cathy. Every time I restart my iPHONE7, my brightness is set to 100%. I
always have to set the brightness to 0% and can't find a way to prevent it
changing when I reboot. I think this might be an intentional change to make
certain that sighted people can always see their devices when they restart
them. I could easily be wrong about this though.

Hello,

This issue is definitely a software glitch.

In my case, all last week, each time I restarted my 8 Plus, regardless of the brightness level, the screen would reset to zero.

For whatever reason, this week, at least, it reboots with the same brightness level, 50% at which it was at the time of shutdown.

Mark
