Home control access when locked

Why does allow access when locked home control turns on by itself? I turned it off, but it automatically turns back on. See attached

Hello IPhone0723,


If you haven't already, we suggest restarting your iPhone and then attempting to change this setting again. While it's a simple step, it often resolves unexpected behavior.


If that doesn't help, make sure you're running the latest iOS version. Updates often include bug fixes. You can find steps for updating here: Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


Should the above not resolve your issue, contact Apple Support so that they can look into this with you further. They can be reached here: Get Support


Take care.
