Pretty new Lock Screen

The first thing I said when I saw this pop up during the keynote was, “Why isn’t Material You like this?” There is a polish to Apple’s iOS 16 Lock Screen that doesn’t yet exist on Android 12—or the Android 13 Beta that I’ve been playing around with for a few months.

On iOS 16, you can customize the font type, add compact widgets (they’re much smaller than the ones you’d place on the Home Screen), and even choose a cool Portrait Mode effect for your wallpaper.
