How do you put date in top time bar?
I can't find anyplace in the setting. Seems like a dumb oversight.

Actually those who don't know and want to know will see it in one of three ways. One way is by search, the second way is by the thread being seen at the top, and the third way is by the forum's way of showing these threads in the sidebar - "More Like This".
And then ... No matter how many other topics there are - "deserving" or not - people will only look at what they are interested in, anyway.
Not really a hugely popular topic, so scratch that one, just because it moved to the top doesn't mean anyone will be interested and More Like This is not affected by a recent posting. You posted to criticize someone else's response from a year old post. You added nothing new or of value.
As I said, there are many new posts every hour. Feel free to jump in and help out.
It might not be a popular topic - but if just one person finds it useful, that's all that matters. And the nature of forums and individual threads is that it really doesn't matter what a bunch of other people think, because only the people who are concerned and interested in a particular thread and topic will click on a thread to follow through. All the others who are not interested - won't. That's the nice thing about a forum such as this, it's "self-selecting".
If they do find anything useful it certainly would not be the post you placed to bring it back up.
It could be extremely useful to someone trying to figure out why their screen jumped all the way back to the top - when trying out that suggestion ... :-)
Still no joy on displaying the date and the time - love Apple - annoyed at this. 😟
What is so very frustrating is that Jailbroken phone can display both the date and time so clearly it is not a difficult thing to achieve.
Come on Apple, listen to your users and provide this simple but useful enhancement!!!!!
Guess Apple's answer to this feature is adding it to the pull down notification screen. I agree with everyone on this post...Adding the day and date to the top bar is a feature most users would want...

What is your objective source for that assertion? I've yet to meet anyone who felt a need for it. I certainly don't. And I certainly don't need to clutter the top of my phone with information I already know.
It's the same source you use to imply the opposite - yourself ... :-) ...

I implied nothing about the larger community. I've never met anyone who wanted it and I don't want it myself. Those are simple statements of fact. They do not negate the possibility that "most users" want it. However, I've seen not facts to support that assertion.
Well then ... supply your facts and sources for the opposite ... :-) ...
How about a compromise. Apple can make it an optional setting, so people who want it, can use it. If you don't want it, you don't use...

As I never made the opposite assertion, that most people don't want it, I don't see the need to do that.

Feature bloat. I'm opposed. The more tweaks you can make, the more chances things can go wrong and that people will become confused. I've spent more time than I would like explaining the two different options for the slider switch on the iPad.
