iOS 17 brings StandBy mode to iPhone to make it more useful when it is docked and charging. Turn the iPhone to its side and it becomes a full-screen display to show Live Activities, and widgets, like Weather, Calendar, Photos, and more. Siri also uses this mode to display information on the full landscape screen, making it easy to read responses or information.
StandBy mode essentially turns the iPhone into a display for useful information throughout the day and night, especially as the display dims in the dark. It also has Home controls you can interact with, truly making it a hub interface for essential information and interaction.
iOS 17 will be available on all supported iPhone models later this fall. Throughout the summer, Apple’s developer and public beta program members will test the upcoming update for bugs and improvements. iOS 17 was announced this week at Apple’s annual WWDC, where it also announced its first mixed-reality headset, updated Mac models, macOS 14, iPadOS 17, watchOS 10, and more.
