How to turn off iPhone 14 Pro always-on display
The iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max feature Apple’s first always-on display, but you may want to turn it off. Luckily, doing so is simple. In this article, we will guide you through the process of turning off the always-on display on your iPhone 14 Pro.
Step 1: Open Settings
The first step is to open the Settings app on your iPhone 14 Pro. You can find the Settings app on your home screen. It has an icon that looks like gears.
Step 2: Tap on Display & Brightness
Once you have opened the Settings app, scroll down and tap on “Display & Brightness.” This is where you can find all the settings related to your iPhone’s display.
Step 3: Tap on Always-On Display
In the Display & Brightness settings, you will find an option called “Always-On Display.” Tap on it to access the always-on display settings.
Step 4: Turn off Always-On Display
On the Always-On Display settings page, you will see a toggle switch at the top. This switch is labeled “Always Show on Lock Screen.” To turn off the always-on display, simply tap on the toggle switch to disable it. When the toggle switch is grayed out, it means that the always-on display is turned off.
Step 5: Customize Always-On Display (Optional)
If you still want to have certain information displayed on the lock screen, even when the always-on display is turned off, you can customize the lock screen. Just below the toggle switch, you will find options to customize what is shown on the lock screen. You can choose to show the date, time, battery percentage, and more.
Step 6: Exit Settings
Once you have turned off the always-on display or customized the lock screen, you can exit the Settings app. You can either press the home button or swipe up from the bottom of the screen, depending on the model of your iPhone 14 Pro.
That’s it! You have successfully turned off the always-on display on your iPhone 14 Pro. Now the lock screen will only display when you press the power button or when you receive notifications.
If you ever want to turn on the always-on display again, you can follow the same steps and toggle the switch back on in the Always-On Display settings.
Main takeaway
The always-on display feature on the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max can be useful for quickly glancing at the time and notifications without having to unlock the device. However, if you prefer to conserve battery or simply find the feature unnecessary, you can easily turn it off in the Settings app. By following the steps outlined in this article, you can control the display settings of your iPhone 14 Pro according to your preferences.
