As an avid iPhone user, I’ve gotten used to seeing and using the date & time display at the top of the home screen. My recently purchased iPhone 11 only displays the time on home screen. Has this useful tidbit been omitted or is there a way to get both date and time to display?
iPhone 11, iOS 13
Locked your device, tap the home button don't look at your phone if you have face id enabled.
It will show you the time and date, when unlock as your screenshot you only see the time, if you swiped down from the middle of your home screen like checking notification it will show you the time and date.
NO I completely understand, if there was settings I would've told you from the gate but since there wasn't I gave you alternatives to accessing that feature.
Not sure what phone you had prior or where you been the last 3 or 4 years but that feature was removed when iphone X came out.
google the specs of the iphone X, 11 or any tech website to read more about it.
Time is at the top left of your home screen, if your phone is locked, tap the home screen and it will display time and date.
Believe me, I’ve tried everything! From the 2 screen prints you will notice the phone is not locked but showing the actual home screen. The upper left displays the time and location indicator, nothing else. I tried your suggestion and there is no change. I’ve been periodically checking ALL settings in hopes of finding a solution to my ‘user error’ though I am still at a loss.
Thank you for your suggestion, though.
I’m not sure you completely understand my meaning. I do know how to view the date and time. On all my other iPhones the date and time ALWAYS displayed in the upper left of the screen. I use this info when/during my using other apps I have, namely my emails and word processors. It’s a distraction to take the extra steps to view date/time info while in an edit mode then have to return to my current activity. I thought someone might know how to regain this date/time display. I’m always open to suggestions of streamlining operations as being on-the-go leaves limited time for going back~n~forth thru apps/settings to really be productive.
