Always On Display Option Disappeared after Android 14 Upgrade

[Pauljolley]

Hi All,
My Fairphone 5 was upgraded to Android 14 last night, and I have now lost the Always On Display (Where the clock is shown on a black screen when you’re not using the phone). There is no option to turn if on or off in the settings. I’m assuming this isn’t a feature of Android 14? Is it called something new now?
Kind regardss,
Paul

That feature was deleted on purpose, because of its high battery drain, see:

Thank you Incanus,
That makes sense, however, it would have been nice to have to options to turn it off if we wanted too.
