Debuted in June 2022 during the Worldwide Developers Conference, the latest iPhone operating system brings many changes and several new features and Rocket Yard\u2019s iOS 16 Guide will take you through them all. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This guide will take you through the changes to the Lock Screen, but the full series contains guides to the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/83788-apple-stretches-lead-in-accessibility-with-ios-16-all-the-new-assistive-features\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Accessibility&nbsp;(Live Now)<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/84536-the-ios-16-guide-new-siri-smarts-and-dictation-improvements\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Siri and Dictation (Live Now)<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/83997-the-ios-16-guide-live-text-and-visual-lookup\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Live Text and Visual Lookup (Live Now)<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/84155-the-ios-16-guide-whats-new-in-maps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Maps (Live Now)<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/84326-the-ios-16-guide-focus-mode-improves\/\">Focus Mode (Live Now)<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/84411-the-ios-16-guide-new-imessage-email-features-headline-latest-in-communication-and-collaboration\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Communication and Collaboration (Live Now)<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Security is a top priority for Apple, and as a result, it is required that your phone be locked at all times when not in use. The lock screen is the security gate to your device with a convenient preview of time, date, and notifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the lock screen is fast becoming the new  Home Screen. Maybe the  most drastic change\u2014and certainly the one people notice first\u2014in iOS 16 is the completely revamped lock screen, granting access to more information minus the hassle of a passcode or fingerprint.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"544\" height=\"522\" src=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/widgets.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-84568\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/widgets.png 544w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/widgets-125x120.png 125w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/widgets-284x273.png 284w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/widgets-190x182.png 190w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/widgets-125x120@2x.png 250w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/widgets-190x182@2x.png 380w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 544px) 100vw, 544px\" \/><figcaption>Credit: Apple<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, the lock screen seems to be evolving into a customized dashboard, allowing you take a quick look at stats from various apps without lifting a finger. This means that people may be more likely to put down the phone since they can get essential info at a glance. <a href=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/83625-10-must-have-iphone-wellness-apps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Great for staying zen! <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-notifications-views-live-activities\">Notifications Views + Live Activities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>New notification views will give users more options to organize them on the lock screen from setting or on the fly with a pinch gesture. Plus, bolded text and images for visibility. Yet another way iOS is cathing up to Android.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Stacked View, keeps notifications tucked away like deck of cards.<\/li><li>Count View, hides them away entirely, letting you know how many are unread.<\/li><li>Expanded View, takes up the vertical space.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"490\" height=\"990\" src=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/notifications_stacked.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-84582\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/notifications_stacked.png 490w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/notifications_stacked-59x120.png 59w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/notifications_stacked-160x323.png 160w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/notifications_stacked-94x190.png 94w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/notifications_stacked-59x120@2x.png 118w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/notifications_stacked-160x323@2x.png 320w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/notifications_stacked-94x190@2x.png 188w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 490px) 100vw, 490px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-live-activities\">Live Activities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Live Activities<\/strong> is a form of notification that presents an all new API for app developers to reach users.

Tap to visit the gallery of suggestions and effects categorized by People, Suggested Photos, Featured, Weather &amp; Astronomy, Emoji, and Collections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-people\">People<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Selecting People will bring up photos you\u2019ve taken of humans that are good candidates for the Depth feature, which places the time behind the subject creating a layered effect.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-photos-and-photo-shuffle\">Photos and Photo Shuffle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can self-select images you\u2019d like in your photo shuffle or Apple\u2019s AI technology will choose photos it thinks might go well with the Depth feature or simply be a good wallpaper image.&nbsp;It makes me a little nervous to have my phone auto-select images from my gallery, but you can select\/deselect categories like pets, urban, nature, or people. And if a photo surfaces which you don\u2019t like, simply long press and mark the photo \u201cDo not feature photo again.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-emoji\">Emoji<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>People are really excited about the new Emoji wallpaper feature. Up to six emojis may be selected at a time to create a fun wallpaper design with emojis of different sizes plus patterns like small grid, medium, grid, large grid, rings, and spirals.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plus, with 31 new emojis this year, who can resist?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-weather\">Weather<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Whenever it\u2019s raining outside, it\u2019s also raining on my Android phone\u2019s lockscreen.

This means you don\u2019t need to go through the customization process every time you want to change your lock screen display. Just long press and scroll left or right to choose your preferred lock screen of the moment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-link-focus-mode\">Link Focus Mode<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The best part about multiple lock screens is the ability to link each one to specific focus mode, making it easy to shift focus without going into your settings. And to have access to valuable info or limit info on the fly through custom lock screen widgets is a great way to level up your productivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-widgets\">Widgets<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The lockscreen has three frames\u2014the date, the time, and widgets. The widget frame (below the clock) can fit two rectangular widgets or four square widgets from any proprietary app such as calendar, news, stock, battery life of iPhone or Watch, weather, fitness, or any 3rd party-app if they have designed a widget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"820\" height=\"522\" src=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/add_widget.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-84570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/add_widget.png 820w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/add_widget-189x120.png 189w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/add_widget-284x181.png 284w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/add_widget-190x121.png 190w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/add_widget-189x120@2x.png 378w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/add_widget-284x181@2x.png 568w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/add_widget-190x121@2x.png 380w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 820px) 100vw, 820px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The date frame (above the time) can also be customized with one teeny tiny widget to display a single item of info such as reminders, upcoming appointments, the current temperature, fitness rings, or a stock price.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The clock itself can also be personalized with colors and fonts.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-summary\">Summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Lock screen is the new home screen on iPhone iOS 16.
