The iPhone Lock Screen has been totally overhauled as one of iOS 16’s main new features. To make your iPhone uniquely yours, you can completely customise the new Lock Screen by changing the colours and fonts, adding widgets and new backgrounds, and more.
Of course, you could choose a background for your Lock Screen long before iOS 16 was released. By adding a new visual effect, iOS 16 improves the Lock Screen wallpaper experience even further. Users of iOS 16 now have the option to select a new multilayered wallpaper effect that places the photo’s topic in front of the time, giving the image a depth effect.
