Show time in all apps

Can you have the time show in all apps. I find it really frustrating that I have to interrupt a game or watching a show in many apps to see what time it is. It interrupts what I’m doing when all I want to know is the time.

See time at the top of the screen regardless of app open Depending on the app, some will show you the time at the top and others hide it (along with wifi and battery levels). Is there a way I can always see the time at the top of the screen regardless of the app that is open?

Is there a means to have the time displayed on the 2021 Apple 4K while streaming TV shows? I know that I can go to SIRI and ask for time, but I would like to see the time displayed in the top right corner of our TV screen.

The Apple App Store seems to offer solutions to turn the entire TV into a clock, but does not seem to offer software that will display the time in a small area on the TV as defined by the user. In the 4K Fire Stick world, there is a solution from Vishnu NK that does exactly what we are looking for in the Apple world.

How do I keep the time displayed while in apps This is the one thing I miss about android. You can choose to keep the status bar on running over apps. I can’t find anyway to do that on the iPhone. While I’m in apps I need to be able to just glance and see the time and not stop what I’m doing to pull down the drawer with the info in it. Is there a way to keep the status bar or just the time displaying?
