There’s no single must-have feature in Apple’s latest iPhone OS update, but a lot of little improvements make it worth getting excited about.

StandBy is what I'm most excited about. Having a little info station next to my bed which I can quickly glance at when I wake up or before I go to sleep sounds great.

I’m loving it. I just wish I could leave it on without having iPhone 14. Mine stays on for less than a minute before timing out.

Yeah, Standby comes on when I have it plugged in and horizontal. It only shows for about 20 seconds for me on iPhone 12 before it fades out to a black screen. I can wave my hand for it to come back shortly for another 20 seconds or so. I’d like it as a bedside clock more if it stayed on longer.

From what I’ve read, there’s an Always On function in settings for iPhone 14 that doesn’t seem to be available for older phones

Oh damn. That sucks. I only have an XR. Oh well. Still not enough of a reason for me to upgrade.
