You’ve probably seen iPhone Home Screens that just look cool, sporting dynamic text, fun images, and custom icons…but even with iOS 16’s new Lock Screen editor, there’s no way to use Apple’s built-in tools to make them. For that, you’ll need to look outward.

Fortunately, there’s a simple way to turn a boring iPhone Home Screen into something interesting and fun, without getting into the whole “Home Screen aesthetic” thing. All you need is a custom widget app like Widgy.

You can create your own graphical widget from scratch using the app’s Photoshop-like editor, but that’s pretty time-consuming. Instead, you can use the power of internet community to shortcut your way around a beautiful Home Screen. The app has an explore page where you can import any widget you like; and what’s even better is that there’s a thriving community on Reddit where users share links and codes to their own widget creations, so you can borrow from those before you. Setting things up can be a bit tricky, but see more on how to set about this at the link below.
