The iPhone lock screen is not just the place where you check the time or your notifications – this is a fully customized place where you can express your personality, highlight your favorite photos, and even stay on your day with a helper widget. With iOS18, Apple has given users even more control, allowing you to personalize your home screen and adjust the lock screen control.
Whether you want some active, minimal, photo heavy or playful, we will walk the same way to make your lock screen-by adding widths and adding widgets to switching between screens throughout the day.
