Re: ~ Love Lock Screens (iPhone, IPad)

I do not understand why Apple does that. Live photo there (Kids, GF, BF; pets) is such a cool, emotional thing there. In comparison multiple locks screens is just techno bureaucratic. And One could handle lock screen change easily in the Settings, why directly on the lock screen.While widget may make sense, I doubt that a lot of users even understand multiple lock screen.Please give us back live photos.
I like the whole wallpaper adjustment but what everyone here thinks as well is we should leave the changes in settings. If it makes it any easier we could edit and customize the wallpapers the same way but only when we unlock the phone so if it is locked we can continue using our Live Photos. What I really like though is the multiple wallpaper addition for one focus. What I think would be a great use is a time adjustment for how long we want each one to switch to another wallpaper. Finally, please bring back Live Photos because many of us really enjoyed having those as lock screens.
My 11 month old daughter will miss the live photo feature more than anyone else. I own an iOS device as well as a Huawei phone, in the android she'd know swiping on the lock screen would bring a bunch of pre set nature wallpapers, but on is iphone holind on the lock scrren would animate a picture of her parents playing in the snow, Now i can already see her changing my lock screens all the time in my iOS device.
You can even set up multiple customized lock screens with different widgets and easily swipe to switch between them. There's also a photo shuffle option that automatically changes the pictures on your lock screen.
I searched high and low in the App Store and came up short for a screen lock. My one year old loves my phone but constantly touches the screen and leaves the apps. This is EXACTLY what we needed! Thank you!
Over the years, Apple has made significant changes to how to customize wallpapers on iPhones. Currently, you can create wallpapers in pairs for both the home screen and lock screen of your iPhone. You can also add widgets to wallpapers and automatically activate a Focus mode when specific lock screens are in use.
Again, iOS 16 is throwing out live wallpapers in favor of its new lock screen switcher. If you love live wallpapers on your lock screen, you may want to hold off on updating to iOS 16 until you're ready to let live wallpapers go.
And believe me, I'm excited for this to land this autumn. Apple might finally surpass Android's lock screen, which itself has been fantastic for years now. iOS 16 will let you dive deep into customizations, from the clock's font and color to filters and widgets. You can even have multiple lock screens, which you can tie to Focus modes.
These breaking News alerts on the iOS lock screen are often a mishmash of curious headlines on various topics, and while some users may find those type of stories to be vitally important and love having them pushed to their iPhone or iPad lock screens, other users may prefer to not have their device screens scattered with miscellaneous headlines of stories they might be disinterested in.
In fall 2020, Apple broke the internet (and Pinterest) when they provided users the ability to update their iOS app icons and home screens in a whole new way. Fast forward 2 years later, Apple is blessing us yet again with a fully customizable lock screen.
If you have a video loitering in your library that you just love and that you'd like to be reminded of all the time, you might be wondering if there's a way to set it as your iPhone lock screen as a motion-enabled live photo.
Few lock screens are as soothing as images of nature. Nature scenes offer a brief respite from the stresses of the day each and every time you look at your phone. Here are three of the best ones we found.
A love lock or love padlock is a padlock that couples lock to a bridge, fence, gate, monument, or similar public fixture to symbolize their love.[1] Typically the sweethearts' names or initials, and perhaps the date, are inscribed on the padlock, and its key is thrown away (often into a nearby river) to symbolize unbreakable love.
Since the 2000s, love locks have proliferated at an increasing number of locations worldwide. They are treated by some municipal authorities as litter or vandalism, and there is some cost to their removal. However, there are other authorities who embrace them, and who use them as fundraising projects or tourist attractions.
In 2014, the New York Times reported that the history of love padlocks dates back at least 100 years to a melancholic Serbian tale of World War I, with an attribution for the bridge Most Ljubavi (lit. the Bridge of Love) in the spa town of Vrnjačka Banja.[2] A local schoolmistress named Nada fell in love with a Serbian officer named Relja. After they committed to each other, Relja went to war in Greece, where he fell in love with a local woman from Corfu. As a consequence, Relja and Nada broke off their engagement. Nada never recovered from that devastating blow, and after some time she died due to heartbreak from her unfortunate love.[citation needed]
As young women from Vrnjačka Banja wanted to protect their own loves, they started writing down their names, with the names of their loved ones, on padlocks and affixing them to the railings of the bridge where Nada and Relja used to meet.[3][4]
In the rest of Europe, love padlocks started appearing in the early 2000s as a ritual.[5] The reasons love padlocks started to appear vary between locations and in many instances are unclear. However, in Rome, the ritual of affixing love padlocks to the bridge Ponte Milvio can be attributed to the 2006 book I Want You by Italian author Federico Moccia, who made a film adaptation in 2007.[6][7][8]
In many cities, love locking has been classified an act of vandalism.[10]In several countries, the local authorities and owners of various landmarks have expressed concern often have the padlocks removed:
We really loved this render of a person in a space suit, probably trying to make something out of the planet they are on. Perhaps a preview of what the first humans might look like on Mars? Well, keep your imagination wide open, as you stare at this on your iPhone lock screen. We love how cool this one looks!
Most of iOS 10's "big" changes are cosmetic, centered around its newfound love of clunky, overly bound Android-style widgets in the lock screen, notifications screen, Control Center, and what used to be the (useless) Search screen (swipe all the way to the leftmost screen).
The good news is, that outside the revamped lock, notification, and Control Center screens, iOS 10 doesn't damage what has long been a world-class mobile OS. This is no Windows Vista or Windows 8 tragedy, but it is a missed opportunity.
