This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

This has been the case on most smart phones I’ve owned. It’s an interesting little detail that’s easily missed.

Even as far back as the first release of iPhone OS, I believe

The calendar got animations later iirc

Nope, as far back as iOS 7.

iOS 6 and earlier had a static clock.

You're right, I can't quite believe they've only added it with iOS 7, though.

It would've looked way cooler on the older versions, though.

I know it took them a while too, because I had to use tweaks on a jailbroken iPhone to get it

It is neat! I never noticed it until reading this comment just now, but yup, mine is showing the current time too. Pretty cool
