Widgetsmith -- a robust iPhone app for creating and editing your own widgets -- debuted back in 2020 when iOS 14 added widgets to its home screen. Now, the app is adding its widget customization tricks to iPhone lock screens.

Add quick shortcuts on your lock screen that go to your favorite iPhone apps or bookmarks with Launchify, a new app released on the same day as iOS 16. The app lets you import your own custom icons or use thousands from its own library.

The free version of Launchify lets you add only two circular widgets to your lock screen -- a subscription for $17 a year or $2 a month unlocks additional widgets and the ability to add apps not included in the Launchify database.

The popular flight-tracking app Flighty has already been updated to include support for lock screen widgets. Now you can just glance at your iPhone to get the latest updates on arrivals and departures.

You can also add lock screen widgets with a countdown to your trip, the weather in your destination, an in-flight progress bar or other detailed information about your flight, including gate number, seat assignment and baggage claim info.

The social media giant Facebook surprised users on the day of the iOS 16 launch by updating its iPhone app to include support for two lock screen widgets. You can add birthdays at a glance or top updates from your friends.

The ambient sounds app Dark Noise has become a popular tool for iPhone users who like to have background noise for sleeping or focusing. Now you can access white noise directly from the lock screen. Dark Noise has added all three types of widgets for the various sounds and noises included with the app.

Heavy Reddit users will appreciate the new lock screen widgets from this third-party app for tracking the popular message board site. Apollo for Reddit developer Christian Selig has already created several new lock screen widgets for monitoring Reddit activity at a glance while your iPhone is locked.

The health-focused iPhone app WaterMinder helps keep you hydrated, and now you can get reminders to drink more water -- straight from your iPhone lock screen. The app was recently updated to add eight styles of lock screen widgets.

Things is a popular personal task manager for iPhone that lets you create to-do lists and track your progress in completing them. A new update for iOS 16 puts much of the power of Things directly into your iPhone lock screen.

Three new widgets from Things let you view the tasks on your to-do list, quickly add a new task or track your progress in completing your tasks. Things' lock screen widget defaults to the tasks in your Today list, but you can customize it to show other items like your inbox, deadlines or shopping lists.

The useful package-tracking app Parcel lets you monitor the progress of your deliveries from 300 services, including UPS, FedEx, DHL and the US Postal Service.

Any variety of widgets from Apple or third parties that I put on any Lock Screen will simply stop responding to touch usually 12-48 hours after reboot. An example is the date above the time widget or the weather or battery or Gmail.

I have been working with support for over a week now and still no resolution. It happens even when the phone is reset and setup as new. The only progress I have made is to determine it seems related to clearing all notifications. It does not happen every time I clear all notifications on the lock screen, but when it does happen, it seems always immediately after clearing all notifications. The Lock Screen will go "blank" where I see nothing but the wall paper and top bar. No camera or flashlight icon until I tap the screen again and then find the widgets not responding to touch until I reboot the phone. It is so weird and I can't understand how this seems to be such an isolated issue to me. I can't find any reference to anyone having similar issues. I suppose I am going to ask for a third replacement phone and see how that goes next. This is an example of how the Lock Screen looks right after clearing notifications and right before seeing the widgets stop responding.

While lock screen widgets are useful across the entire iPhone lineup, these gave the the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max new superpowers, thanks to the gorgeous new always-on display that showed up on these models.

Now that iOS 16 has been out for a while, there's no shortage of apps that support lock screen widgets. Naturally, these include Apple's built-in apps like Weather, Calendar, Reminders, Activity, and more, plus a wealth of third-party apps like Facebook Messenger, Google Maps, Gmail, Fantastical, Things, and even ChatGPT and a distance apart widget that lets you see how close or far away you are from a loved one.

You should be aware that these are different from the widgets you can put on your home screen, so you won't necessarily be able to access the same kind of widget, and some apps that have capable home screen widgets still may not offer widgets for the lock screen. Lock screen widgets are also more limited than their home screen counterparts, presenting information in a much smaller monochromatic layout.

You also can't plaster your entire lock screen with widgets; Apple confines these to a single row of up to four square widgets, two rectangular widgets, or three widgets if you want to combine both sizes. The good news is that you can have multiple lock screens with different widgets and even tie these to Focus modes, so you can keep your widgets tailored to the different places and mindsets you find yourself in throughout your day.

Adding widgets to your iPhone lock screen is done the same way as changing any part of the lock screen. It's a little different from what Apple's had in the years prior, but it should be easy enough once you get used to it.

Step 4: A widget picker will appear that displays some suggested widgets that you can quickly add, followed by an alphabetical list of all the apps installed on your iPhone that support lock screen widgets.

Step 6: Otherwise, scroll down to browse through the list of apps. When you find the app you want to add a widget from, select it to see the lock screen widgets that are available for that app. If multiple widgets are available, you can swipe right to see additional options.

Step 7: Repeat steps 5 and 6 to add any additional widgets. As we mentioned earlier, you can add up to four small widgets, two large widgets, or one large widget and two small ones. Widgets you add are positioned automatically, and the layout is a bit restrictive. You can reorder smaller widgets or two larger widgets, but a larger widget must always be on the left side of smaller ones.

Step 4: Select the minus sign (-) in the top left corner of the widget you would like to remove. You can also drag the widget out of the widget tray. Repeat this for any other widgets you'd like to remove.

While the widgets in iOS 16 are a great start, there's still some room for improvement. For instance, Apple could let you customize them by adding even more widget space to the lock screen rather than the limited four. Also, while you may have heard that iOS 17 is adding interactive widgets, that's only for home screen widgets. So far, it doesn't look like Apple is doing much with lock screen widgets on the iPhone with this year's software releases, but the good news for iPad fans is that Apple's tablet will be joining the lock screen party with iPadOS 17.

Lock screen interaction is difficult. Android allows basic operations with two window flags (FLAG_SHOW_WHEN_LOCKED and FLAG_DISMISS_KEYGUARD). FLAG_SHOW_WHEN_LOCKED works pretty consistently in that it will show on top of the lock screen even when security is enabled (the security isn't bypassed, you can't switch to another non-FLAG_SHOW_WHEN_LOCKED window).

If you're just doing something temporary, like while music is playing or similar, you'll probably mostly be okay. If you're trying to create a custom lock screen then there's a lot of unusual interactions on all the different android platforms. ("Help! I can't turn off my alarm without rebooting my HTC phone").

Window flag: when set the window will cause the keyguard to be dismissed, only if it is not a secure lock keyguard. Because such a keyguard is not needed for security, it will never re-appear if the user navigates to another window (in contrast to FLAG_SHOW_WHEN_LOCKED, which will only temporarily hide both secure and non-secure keyguards but ensure they reappear when the user moves to another UI that doesn't hide them). If the keyguard is currently active and is secure (requires an unlock pattern) than the user will still need to confirm it before seeing this window, unless FLAG_SHOW_WHEN_LOCKED has also been set.
