Large parts of the lock screen no longer imitate iOS 15: they use iOS 15's own views and settings, which iOS 16 still ships, or the exact sizes read from a real iOS 15 lock screen.
Clock
- iOS 15's own clock font (Thin, grade 2, Soft design).
Notifications
- iOS 15 card sizes: 18.5 pt corners, 10 pt from the edges.
- Pulling down anywhere on the lock screen opens search, like iOS 15. The list and the Focus pill stay where they are.
Music player
- Sizes and positions of iOS 15.8's lock screen player.
Wallpaper
- Dynamic wallpapers are drawn by iOS 15's own bubbles view, and move with the iPhone the way they did on iOS 15.
- Live wallpapers can be downloaded on every iPhone. Until now iPhone SE, 8, 8 Plus and XR found none, because Apple only made the videos for Face ID screen sizes; they now get the closest size, filling the screen.
- Stills and Perspective Zoom come from iOS 15's own wallpaper view.
- While the lock screen slides away, its copy of the wallpaper mirrors the live wallpaper instead of showing a still.
- Settings → Wallpaper opens iOS's own preview with Cancel and Set; the lock screen preview shows 09:41 and January 9 like iOS 15.
- iPhone Plus models (#7): the wallpaper turns with the home screen in landscape, the dock blurs the tweak's wallpaper, and Settings → Wallpaper shows rectangular previews on iPhones with a home button.
Home screen
- The lighter iOS 15 shadow under the app names, drawn the way iOS 15 did it. New switch Icon Label Shadows, on by default.
Known limitations
- On iPhones with a home button, the dock can briefly show iOS's own wallpaper while the home screen rotates; it is right again once the turn is done.
- No Dynamic Island support yet.
Thanks to DasherLV for testing on an iPhone 8 Plus.
