Besides saving battery, locking the iPhone screen when not in use helps prevent others from peeping into your phone. However, if you have low power mode enabled, the screen lock defaults to 30 seconds, causing interruptions in phone use and the inability to change the auto-lock time on the iPhone. You can adjust this in your iPhone settings. Turn off the iPhone screen lock as guided below by Mytour.
