Your iPhone Lock Screen is changing FOREVER in shock new update

APPLE has just revealed its new iOS 16 software at its Worldwide Developers Conference.

The new update promises to totally change your lock screen.

Just based on the images Apple revealed, iPhone lock screen is going to go through its biggest changes yet.

There's more room for lock screen personalization like widgets and "intelligent photos".

The font style and how the time looks is one of the biggest aesthetic changes.

We're also getting a new depth-effect Portrait photo wallpaper system (just like on the Apple Watch).

There's going to be a new lock screen widget called Live Activities that can show you "glanceable experiences", including live sports scores or the progress of an Uber ride.

You can also make Weather play a bigger role on your iPhone lock screen.

All these features will come with the iOS 16 update when it's ready to download.

Craig Federighi, Apple’s senior vice president of Software Engineering, said: "iOS 16 is a big release with updates that will change the way you experience iPhone.

"We have reimagined how the Lock Screen looks and works with exciting new features that make it more personal and helpful, introduced iCloud Shared Photo Library for families, streamlined communication through new capabilities in Messages and Mail, and harnessed enhanced intelligence with updates to Live Text and Visual Look Up.";

Apple says it wants to make you lock screen more "beautiful" and "personal".

What is Apple WWDC 2022?

WWDC is Apple's yearly developer convention, where app makers gather in huge numbers.

Apple also uses the event to make major announcements about its products.

The event usually attracts thousands of visitors, but 2020 marked the first time WWDC was virtual-only.

And the 2021 WWDC event followed suit with an exclusively online experience.

Apple's 2022 will also be mostly virtual, but with a special limited-capacity event.
