Bug Description
1. Tap "Settings".
What you see:
Auto-Upload Camera Roll
,--
| Enabled ............ (_)_OFF_) |
|--
| Wifi-Only .......... (_ON__(_) |
|--
| Nightstand Mode .... (_)_OFF_) |
| Disables sleep while uploading |
| . if the device is charging .. |

The word "Enable" usually indicates a design that could be more direct. This is even more true on iOS, where binary toggles already use the words "OFF" and "ON". Turning on something labelled "Enabled" feels a little Rube-Goldbergian.
There's a clue how to improve this in the next switch: "Wifi-Only" applies only when "Enabled" is on. So those two switches represent not four possible states, but three. Voila:
Auto-upload Camera Roll
,--
| Always .......
|--
| When using wi-fi ............. |
|--
| Never .......
`--
This requires separating out the Nightstand Mode into its own grouped table, but you can take that opportunity to describe it instead of making me learn a new term:
When uploading while charging
,--
| Keep iPhone awake .. (_)_OFF_) |
