Most of the time my phone's brightness is turned down quite low. This
is a big problem if I happen to want to use it somewhere it's
particulalrly bright,. For example just now in the car I had arrived
to catch a ferry at Dover and wanted to send a text home to say that
all was well.
I couldn't see anything when I turned the phone on and I had to crouch
down with the phone under the fascia where I could see to navigate my
way to Settings to turn the brightness up.
Is there any standard short-cut way to increase brightness?

Drag down the notification shade from the top edge, and (depending on manufacturer variations) you should see a brightness slider ...

Deactivate
Settings - Display - Automatic Brightness (Pixel 7 Android 14)
Then slide a finger down from the upper edge twice until you have opened
the control center and there fix the brightness to your needs.

My Pixel 6a does not have that. You have to pull down the notification
shade once - then you see the quick setting icons. Then pull it once
more down to see more quick setting icons and the brightness slider. I believe this at how it's done at least since Android 12.

Similar icons here (google call them tiles) does your shade pull down a second level for more? Can you customise them? (maybe a pencil icon)

One exception: when the device is locked, a single slide from top will
open the notification drawer fully expanded in with the brightness
slider visible.
