Apple takes cues from Watch UI for iOS 16

CUPERTINO, Calif.—iOS 16 will reach iPhones later this year, and as expected, it's loaded with major changes.

Apple executives and product managers took the stage at the company's Worldwide Developers Conference keynote to outline the upcoming features and changes, which include a focus on the lock screen.

It includes more personalization options, like a "depth effect" where you can make a selected photo appear in front of the time. You can also press and hold to customize the lock screen and swipe to try out different styles, like black-and white and other color filters, and font and time options.
