Nightstand mode turns off during the night Big reason for getting a 15 Pro Max is the Nightstand mode but the screen has started turning off during the night. It worked for a few days when I first got it but now doesn’t. If I touch the screen it displays my lock screen. How do I get it to stay on all night?

How do I make the Standby Mode display stay on all night, please? On my Standby settings screen, it says "Display: Always On: When Always On is enabled, the display will intelligently turn off when not in use." How do I make the Standby Mode display stay on all night, please? I have turned off Sleep Mode and Do Not Disturb, but the Standby Mode display still turns off after a minute or two.
