- Change the wallpaper:
- Go to Settings > Wallpaper.
- Tap Add New Wallpaper and choose from Apple's options or your photos.
- Tap Add and set as Wallpaper Pair for both lock and home screen or Customize Home Screen to set a different wallpaper just for the home screen.
- Rearrange app icons:
- Touch and hold an app icon until they start jiggling.
- Drag icons to rearrange them or move them to other home screen pages.
- Create folders by dragging one app icon onto another.
- Add or customize widgets:
- Touch and hold the home screen and tap Edit.
- Tap Add Widget to browse and add widgets.
- Resize and move widgets as desired.
- Change app icons using Shortcuts:
- Create a shortcut to open the app and add it to the home screen with a custom image replacing the icon.
- Use Focus modes to automatically switch home screens based on focus settings in iOS 18 and later.
These methods allow the home screen layout, wallpaper, app icons, and widgets to be uniquely personalized on iPhone models running iOS 16 and later, including iOS 18 with enhanced customization features.
