How to use standby mode on iOS 17

Are you ready to unleash the potential of iPhone through iOS 17? With its included features, your life will be made easier. One of these features is standby mode. When the iPhone is charging, it is actually a smart little screen and remains active. Even though we're relatively new to using it, we've fallen in love with it.

The standby mode of the iPhone 14 Pro model keeps the display always online. However, you don't need to have the latest iPhone model to take advantage of this feature. As long as your device can run iOS 17, you're good to go!

You need an iOS 17-compatible iPhone to use Standby Mode

To start your journey using Standby Mode, you need an iPhone with iOS 14 Public iPhone 17 in beta.

• The first step is a breeze: Put your device to sleep, rotate it to landscape mode, and start charging. You are free to use any charging method, whether wired, wireless Qi or MagSafe. Place your iPhone on the charging stand in landscape mode, or simply plug it in, rotate it, and prop it up.
• When you see the prompt to start using Standby, just click Continue. No complicated setup process involved. Once in standby mode, you'll see three options: widget view, photos, or clock face. Feel free to swipe left and explore them.
• If you are keen on personalizing the widget view, long press on the clock or calendar and unlock your phone if needed. You can customize the sides of the display by adding or removing widgets, just like on the iPhone home screen. By default, your device will cycle through widgets based on its algorithm, but you are free to turn this feature on or off.
• Personalizing your photo views is just as easy. Long press the center of the screen and tap the plus icon to select an album to display. If you don't select an album, your phone will display photos featured in the For You tab in the Photos app.
• When it comes to clock views, there are five different styles to choose from, most of which are customizable. Scroll up or down to explore different styles, and long press the center of the screen for customization options. Click the white circle in the lower right corner to change the color palette of the selected clock style.

Dig deeper and you'll find additional standby options in the settings menu.

Go to "Standby > Settings". You can choose to turn off standby mode entirely, or disable notifications when it's enabled (it's on by default). You can choose to disable Night Mode if you don't want the screen to fade into a soft red hue in a dark room.

Standby mode also has a cool feature that you won’t find in the settings menu. When used in standby mode with certified MagSafe chargers, iPhone automatically saves the preferred interface for each charger. So you can choose a practical widget view for the kitchen or a relaxing clock face for the bedside – personalization is truly in your hands. Enjoy the standby experience!
