AM/PM

Is there a way to display AM/PM next to the time on my phone. I just woke up from a long nap and in great confusion about what time it is after picking up my phone. I started panicking because I literally thought that I had overslept and was late for work but found out that it was 5AM and not 5PM. I found this out by looking out of the window and learned that it was dark outside so that’s how I then knew and my blood pressure was no longer elevated.

iPhone 14, iOS 16

No there is no settings for that, use military time (24 hour) and there will be no confusion.
