How To Use StandBy Mode On iOS 17?

To use StandBy mode on an iOS 17 iPhone, follow these steps:

1. Ensure your iPhone is charged and locked.
2. Position your iPhone in landscape (horizontal) orientation, ideally on a charging stand, since StandBy works best when the device is set at an angle.
3. Make sure StandBy is enabled in your device's settings:
   • Go to Settings.
   • Tap Standby.
   • Ensure the StandBy feature is toggled on. StandBy is enabled by default on iOS 17, but confirm this setting in case it's been manually disabled.

Once the StandBy mode is activated, you can:

• Swipe left or right to switch between clocks, photos, and widget views.
• Swipe up or down to scroll through options within each view.

To customize Night Mode and other display options:

• Go to Settings.
• Tap StandBy.
• Tap Display.
• Adjust settings such as "Turn Display Off" (e.g., choose between options like Never, if you prefer the screen to remain visible) and Night Mode to change the red display tint in low light situations.

Keep in mind that Always-On Display and Night Mode functionalities are limited to iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro models. For other iPhone models, StandBy will automatically turn off after about 30 seconds unless the device has Low Power Mode or Sleep Mode deactivated.
