Hi. Evidently, screen curtain works differently now. When I learned how it worked, what I read was it didn’t effect the screen brightness. All it did was to have all the pixels show black, rather than turn them off.
I don’t know what’s done with it.

Screen brightness only impacts what someone sees on your physical phone, it doesn’t have any impact on anything you send. I know Apple and others do not agree with me, but I simply set screen brightness to auto, turn on the screen curtain, which means the brightness will be at 0 very shortly. Then, if someone sighted needs to see my phone, I either toggle the screen curtain off, or toggle VoiceOver off and the screen brightness adjusts to the room lighting so they can see it fine. I do this all the time with my wife so she can see my screen when needed. And, charging once a day is normal. I have the 13 Pro and get a full day’s use on a charge and I use it a lot. IF I forget to turn on the screen curtain, I notice a definite drop in battery life. Logic says, if the screen brightness takes more juice, doing what I do uses less juice, the same as manually lower the screen brightness.

Hello, I’ve been having to charge the battery quite a bit on my phone usually every day but then I’m usually playing with it all day long so that’s my maybe another reason. Anyways. I currently have the screen brightness set to zero however it was set at 33% also currently it’s set to dark so how should that be set? Also if I send a text or an email with like say an attachment that a visual person has to read while they be able to read it with my phone screen set at 0% and if you guys think I should still leave dark turned on? And how about a text message as well with pictures or text? Thanks for reading regarding this matter.
