Standby Mode in the Apple iOS 17 upgrade is another interesting feature that activate your iPhone as a clock. Yes, you read that right! Apart from the mini clock on the lock screen, this feature turns your iPhone into a bedside clock and makes it much easier to read time, even when your phone is plugged into a far-away charger.
On the greener side, iOS 17 Standby Mode also lets you access some non-clock features that you can use as a display. Eventually, users can try a full-screen photo or a split-screen displaying widgets.
How to activate Standby Mode on Apple iOS 17 devices?
- Visit the Settings app on your eligible iPhone
- Scroll down and select the Standby section
- Click on Standby Mode
- Turn on the toggle
- Connect the iPhone to a charger and keep it down on its side
- Press the side button
And done! You can swipe left or right to switch between widgets, photos, and clocks. Note that you must have the latest iOS version on your handset to access this capability.
