any help is appreciated.
Samsung has it on OLED screens.
For OLED it takes very little power to dimmily illuminate a small area of the screen and the rest is the same as it’s off.
So you can do stuff like have a clock always display without having to drain your battery as much as always having the screen “on”.
But this is Apple, so who knows if they mean the standard definition or it’s like Musk’s “full self driving” that cant drive itself.
Apple always on = 100% screen brightness 100% of the time.
If you want Dimmed always on, as you described for OLED, that’s a $19.99/month subscription
Always on, idle
Always on, in use
The display runs dimmed unless you’re actively using it. During certain Focus settings, like Bedtime, the display turns off completely unless you wake it intentionally.
Recommend that you go to Settings > Display & Brightness > Always On Display and uncheck “Show Wallpaper”
This will make it so the display is mostly black when not in use. Black pixels don’t use power on OLED screens, so it will help boost your battery life.
Or, leave the wallpaper if you’d rather.
And hide that glorious wallpaper? Pfffft
(Actually kind a jealous. I’m boring. My background is straight black. Mostly on account of icons and readability.) (okay, so I grew up in the 90’s wallpapers aren’t supposed to be fun.)

I, and my child self fooling around in Windows 3.11 back in the day, beg to differ.
That is very good AI art, if it’s AI art. Pretty sure it’s Norse mythology inspired- I think the snake is Jormungandr and the lil dude with the hammer is Thor. So it might be AI making the art weird or it might be the source material making the art weird lmao
Perhaps “always-on display” is clearer? Keeps it from turning off when idle
