Customize the Lock Screen

The headline new feature of iOS 16 is the ability to personalize the Lock Screen with multi-layered wallpapers, widgets, custom fonts for the date and time, and more. You can also select a set of photos to shuffle on the Lock Screen throughout the day.

The new Lock Screen gallery showcases a range of Lock Screen options, including a new Weather wallpaper with live weather conditions and an Astronomy wallpaper that provides views of the Earth, Moon, and Solar System. iOS 16 includes support for multiple Lock Screen designs, allowing you to switch between your favorites with a swipe.

iOS 16 introduces the ability to temporarily edit or unsend iMessages, as well as mark iMessage conversations as unread after opening them.

Apple allows you to edit an iMessage for up to 15 minutes after sending it, with up to five edits allowed per message. Recipients are able to see a record of edits made to the message, and on devices running iOS 15 or earlier, edited messages are received as a new message that says “Edited to [new message].”

To edit or unsend a message, simply tap and hold on a bubble and select the appropriate option in the menu that appears. iMessages that have been edited are marked as “edited” below the message bubble. SMS messages (green bubbles) cannot be edited or unsent.

how can Use the Full-Screen Music Player in ISO 16 Apple IPhone

iOS 16 reintroduces a full-screen music player on the Lock Screen with large album art and a color-matched wallpaper.

Apple last offered a full-screen music player on the Lock Screen on iOS 10 in 2016. If you don’t like the feature, you can tap on the bottom of the display to minimize the music player and revert to your standard Lock Screen wallpaper.
