How to Disable Notifications in iPhone StandBy Mode

Since Apple showcased iOS17 at WWDC 2023, the most talked about feature has been the iPhone StandBy Mode which allows users to make use of their iPhones when they are ideal and charging. When you put your iPhone in landscape orientation while charging, it unlocks a new lock screen experience, allowing you to display pertinent information such as the clock, calendar, now-playing music widget, and more. In StandBy Mode, your iPhone will also display incoming notifications. However, if you use your iPhone in StandBy Mode by your nightstand or while working, you might not want to see any notifications. Here is how to disable notifications in iPhone StandBy Mode.
