How can I change color settings in StandBy mode on iPhone?

I want to be able to leave the stand by mode color on in low ambient light. Or default to a color other than red. Amber or even an orange color is preferred. But currently the setting don’t allow anything but the red when you have standby mode set to “never” turn off. I don’t want to tap the phone in the middle of the night when I wake up and i want to know what time it is. Like a normal alarm clock where the display is always on.

Extracted from the Apple Article Keep the iPhone display on longer: "The display automatically turns off when iPhone is either face down or obstructed from view, not near a paired Apple Watch, when a CarPlay session begins, while Continuity Camera is in use, while Low Power Mode is on, while Sleep Focus is on, or at your usual bedtime."
