When adding Clock widgets below the Lock Screen time, you’ll get 3 square widgets (for Next Alarm, an analog clock, and a digital clock for another region) and 3 rectangular widgets (showing the local time for another region along with the location name, one showing times across multiple cities, and one showing your upcoming alarm). If you select City, you will be able to check the local time for another city or region in the world and if you choose Next Alarm, the Lock Screen will display an upcoming alarm that you’ve set to ring next within the Clock app. When adding the Clock widget above the time on your Lock Screen, you can choose from two available options – City and Next Alarm. If you add these widgets to your Lock Screen, it will look something like this.Īlthough you can check the time straight away when you glance at your iPhone, iOS 16 lets you view the local time of another region or city or check your alarms directly from the Lock Screen. You can choose from 2 square widgets (one each for showing the date and event) and 1 rectangular widget (that shows both the date and event title). When adding the Calendar widget below the time on your Lock Screen, you can add any or all of the three options available to you.

You can choose to display either today’s date at the top or an upcoming event. When adding the Calendar widget to the top of the Lock Screen, you’ll get to choose one option from the two available widgets, both of which only display info in text form. Unlike the previous widget, the Calendar app does have widgets on two spots on the Lock Screen you can add them above the digital clock or below it. You have the option to let the widget show different devices automatically or you can configure them to show your preferred device manually. When you connect your AirPods, these widgets will show the battery status of your AirPods instead. There are two versions of this widget – square and rectangle- showing your iPhone’s current battery levels. The Batteries widget isn’t available when you’re adding widgets above the lock screen time but you can add it below the digital clock. Following are the default apps developed by Apple that offer lock screen widgets on iOS 16.
