Phone changed to photos on sideways lock screen on iOS 17 - Unable to change back to calendar and clock

I downloaded iOS17 for my iPhone 14. I loved that when I put it on the charger and moved it sideways that it would show a clock and a calendar.


Today, it randomly changed to showing the pictures from my stack. I have repeatedly "Long pressed" the screen to change it back to the clock and calendar - but the only options I'm given are to change the pictures.


I've tried looking for "Lock Screen" and "Widgets" in Settings to no avail. I am very frustrated, and so far, very unimpressed with iOS17

You can turn this off in settings. Search StandBy and swipe it off! Hope this helps!
