Maybe Smart Stay if you are using a Samsung device.

Thats correct :)

Smart Stay is a Samsung feature that actually watches you to make sure you are still watching the screen. If you are watching your screen, it keeps the brightness up at a high level for the best user experience. When you stop watching your screen, Smart stay knows this and the screen dims. Smart stay uses the front facing camera to periodically look out for you and makes sure you are still focused on the screen :)

To disable it:

  • Pull down the Notification drawer (top of screen)
  • Click on the Settings icon
  • Scroll to Display and tap
  • Scroll down to Smart stay and un-tick the box

Hope this helps.
