Enabling Auto Brightness on Pixel 8

💡 To begin troubleshooting, ensure auto brightness is enabled on your Google Pixel 8.
⚙️ Navigate to Settings, then select Display and touch.
✅ Within the display settings, locate and enable the adaptive brightness option.

Restarting Your Pixel 8 for Brightness Issues

⚠️ If adaptive brightness is already enabled but still not functioning correctly, a device restart is recommended.
🔌 Access the power options by expanding the control center and tapping the power icon, then select Restart.
🧠 Restarting the phone not only resets software but also restarts the sensors responsible for detecting ambient light and adjusting screen brightness.
