I wish Standby worked without being plugged in, it's a great little user interface!

@mmikee407 10 ай бұрын

It will most likely be a drain to the battery and that will render it counterproductive specially when used as bedside feature at night.

@@mmikee407 I don't mind that the screen switches off, I quite like it next to my computer when I work. I just tap it to see the time or a calendar, or the weather etc.

Yes, no big deal the screen switches off, however it doesn't on 14 and 15 pro if the always on display setting is on. This option doesn't show on older model and non pro 15 iphone. An "always on standby" mode therefore will drain the battery quite a bit on those devices overnight if it can be activated without charging the phone especially with the widgets continuously updating the info they display. They had to design it to require charging so it can be ubiquitous to all models. @@hambo76

Used it last night after updating to IOS17 yesterday on 14 Pro Max. It was not intuitive to set up but finally got a screen I liked. Especially like the red Night Mode. I thought it was always on until I woke up once and noticed the screen was blank. When I moved my head it instantly came on. Nicely done, but wish it were simpler to set up.

Standby has a serious bug, I was enjoying it since yesterday and trying to customise it. But all of a sudden i couldn’t unlock the phone when phone was brought to portrait position and even though phone was unplugged from the charger, it was still showing standby no matter what. I was able to scroll through the widgets but i just couldn’t unlock the screen, I had to shutdown the phone to unlock the lockscreen. Damn that was unexpected and frustrating. FYI, Im using it on iphone13.

You're very good and I always learn from your videos, but in this case you omitted the part where you control how a clock display works while you sleep. For me, it took me several tries to learn how to keep the time displayed so I can open an eye in the middle of the night and see the time, but I can't be sure I found the right settings to do that until I sleep tonight. Initially, I thought I could not change the time display from going off and a movement of my hand near the phone was needed to make the display come back.

Great video as always. They need to make the always on option, actually always on. I thought this would be good for if I wake in the night so I can see the time without having to tap the screen of my phone. But no. The screen goes off, and when it detects motion, it temporarily forgets that night mode is enabled so it blasts you with some full screen brightness before turning red again. Very annoying. I also think they should make editing options available when you’re not actually in standby mode. I’d like to see an option to pick a ring tone for every function/notification on the phone. Ios17 has changed some of the sounds that have been a default sound for years and I hate them! They’re using the “headphones too loud” sound for my blink camera app, so everytime my camera is activated I think it’s telling me my headphones are too loud. I’m sure every phone even before iPhone had customisable ringtone options.

Hi, great video! Just a question. Does the standby mode turn black after a while. I’ve noticed that during the day it stays on the whole time, but when going to bed and charging the phone, it goes black only to go on when I reach to it. Actually, would be nice if it stayed on the whole time so when you wake at night you see the time when you open your eyes instead of reaching for the phone to wake it. Is there a fix for this that you know of? Thanks! 😊

Standby is a great concept. Might still be buggy. Have a 14 Pro Max and even with Always On, it only comes on for 15 secs or so and goes dark.

Sinds then i disabled it.
