Nexus 5x screen lights up randomly when its on its back

[AC Question]

I bought my wife a Nexus 5x to replace her dying Nexus 5 and for some reason the screen keeps lighting up randomly and showing the clock and date if she has the phone facing up. Anyone know how to disable this?

Go into Settings--->Display Go down seven and see if Ambient Display is on. If so, toggle to off and see if that fixes the issue.

Thank you so much PhiPsi32. That did the trick.
