You can select the widget background color from various options and also they have 7 different icon styles. I like minimalism design so so far I am using this blue background and minimal icon style. A popular layout idea for iOS 16 home screens is the use of split backgrounds. Using colorblocked wallpapers, this look separates app icon and widgets to create a clean and organized appearance.
I was not using this Hey Weather app until the iOS 14 release. I saw the Marques Brownlee’s iOS 14 setup video and found about this app. (Thanks Marques!) This app is for free, but the widget type I am displaying is a paid version. I usually don’t want to spend money on app subscription as much as I can avoid, but this app is totally worth it. I would say this Hey Weather is the best weather app for iOS 14 widget setup. For each widget size, they have multiple different templates to display different kinds of information.
Space / Galaxy Aesthetic Home Screen Layouts
To change your wallpaper, tap the Settings gear icon and select Wallpaper, then Choose New Wallpaper. Select one of iPhone’s built-in wallpapers, or choose an image from your photo gallery. Once you’ve picked a wallpaper you like, choose Set, then select Set Lock Screen, Set Home Screen, or Set Both.
Each widget in iOS is now available in 3 different sizes depending on the look that you are trying to achieve. Scroll the options to find the size that best suits your needs. In the search bar that appears at the top of the screen, type in Open app, then select the Open App app that appears under Scripting. To make the image to shift slightly depending on the angle of your phone, toggle on Perspective before you set your wallpaper.
Halloween / Fall iPhone Layouts
It’s not balanced with even numbers of apps and widgets. Instead, it’s just what I need when I’m out walking around the city. I’ve already written about Focus Mode being the best feature of iOS 15. I had been testing the Beta for a few weeks and really liked the control Focus Mode gave me over my phone. Now that the new iPhone 13 has been launched and iOS 15 is publically available, you can try out Focus Mode for yourself.
You can also utilize the dock if you are running out of space on your home screen to add folders. Add an aesthetic wallpaper to this layout to make your iOS 15 home screen super attractive. Weather, batteries, calendar, photos, App Store, and you name it; there are a bunch of widgets available to help you breathe a new life into your home screen.
The best Lock Screen options in iOS 16
Enis talks about finding the right balance between employee experience and security in the post-pandemic hybrid workforce. When you remove a page from your Home Screen, the apps will still appear in the App Library. With iOS 14 and later, there are new ways to find and organize the apps on your iPhone. Learn how to use the App Library and organize your Home Screen.
I am an employee, I am a blogger, and I have my personal life. Timepage is my calendar app I’ve been using and I love it. All of my calendar events will be displayed here either work or private events.
Old-school iOS
So I will know if it’s gonna be rain or too hot/cold in the next 5 hours. I use Notion for my personal business and my personal life. All of my project notes, idea, checklist, wish list — all kinds of notes are managed on Notion. I want to access the note quickly so I keep in this bottom area. This screen’s purpose is it’s good to know but I don’t need to see every time I open my phone. There are four “slots” where Lock Screen widgets can be placed, and some can take up multiple spots.
Checking couple times a day this screen time is a good reminder to yourself to not use the phone that much. An obvious choice for busy users, the Calendar Widget can show your next appointment at a glance. That means if you’re wondering which meeting is next, it can tell you without needing to unlock your phone. IPadOS gained a weather app this year, but iOS isn’t to be outdone.
Since iOS 14 is just released and I am sure lots of App company will support widgets more in the future. So excited this journey and I will keep eyes on the update and will keep trying to find what’s the best setup for me. Since most apps are in this App Library, I use the “app search” bar a lot. This search bar is simply swiping down anywhere on your home screen. So I don’t need to App Library to scroll and open/close folder to find the app.
To keep up news generally, I am getting a breaking news notification from the New York Times. Besides getting notification from NYT, I display 2 Top Stories topics in this medium-size widget to have an idea of what is going on in the world. In this small Hey Weather widget, I display today’s upcoming weather conditions and temperature.
Clear your home screen from all the icons and start adding your favorite widgets one by one. Then, arrange them on your home screen in a way that they perfectly complement each other. For instance, align all communication apps like phone, messages, Facetime, Whatsapp, etc., in one place. Then start placing the folders from the top left side of your screen as per each group’s priority.
