Get your locks off
Borrowing a trick from the Apple Watch, iOS 16 lets you tap-hold a lock screen to add new ones and swap between them. Each lock screen can be customised - tap above and below the clock to add widgets that resemble Apple Watch complications. This is ideal for at-a-glance weather reports, alarms and more.
Find your Focus
In iOS 15, Apple moved beyond Do Not Disturb with the context-sensitive Focus; that system now goes deeper. Each lock screen can have a Focus attached, to help you quickly identify and switch setups. And Focus Filters in Settings let you filter inboxes, group Safari tabs and more, based on your selected Focus.
Share your snaps
In Settings > Photos > Shared Library, you can create an iCloud Shared Photo Library. This allows you to share an entire library, or photos based on people or dates, or just a manual selection of snaps, with up to five others. Be mindful that, if you set this up, the library eats into your storage but everyone can add, edit or delete images.
Perfect your setup
Spend some time in Settings to explore your new options. Notifications Display As adjusts how lock screen notifications look; Sound & Haptics adds keyboard haptics; in Wi-Fi, you can copy and paste passwords; in Home Screen, you can toggle the search button; Game Centre has had a big profile redesign; and Family Checklist outlines useful features.
Cover your privates
Apple continues to explore ways for people to protect their privacy. Under Privacy & Security > Safety Check in Settings, you can check which people and apps have access to your information and make adjustments or reset the lot. Lockdown Mode is more extreme: an aid in the unlikely event that you're targeted by a cyber attack.
