StandBy Mode is a new static mode in iOS 17 that activates whenever your iPhone is idle while charging in landscape mode. StandBy Mode is quite a useful feature as it can allow you to view multiple widgets, and use Photo backgrounds or dedicated full-sized clocks depending on your preference.

In such cases and more, you might want to disable StandBy Mode, and here’s how you can do that on your iPhone.
