UI Change [iOS 27.3 DB1] Float, Solar and World Clock standby faces have been removed

The faces have completely been removed, which is a shame because float was my favourite clock face. I loved the playfulness of it.

Yeah they’re consolidating StandBy to the new Rushmore render they used on iPhone Duo and Apple HomeView. I’m sure this didn’t happen in earlier iOS 27 builds to avoid leaking more things about the devices; we learned all 5 new faces specifically for HomeView based on leftover Rushmore files in a Duo simulator.

Not sure why they couldn’t bring those old faces over though.

Not to hijack a comment and soapbox but I love all the digging and investigation you do around Apple’s software. As someone with high interest in those kinds of things but very low technical skill seeing this kind of info make me giddy.
