iOS 17 is the latest version of Apple’s mobile operating software, and as always, it brings with it plenty of new features and changes to be excited about. While it’s not the biggest update (it’s telling that one of the major changes mentioned is the ability to send your contact information by AirDrop), iOS 17 is still worth noting and getting if you have a compatible iPhone.
There are not many changes in the lock screen this time, there were major changes in last year’s iOS 16 update. However, it’s still worth staying up to date on how to get the most out of your iPhone’s new lock screen.

Don’t worry, you can do that now, thanks to the ability to customize your lock screen. There are many different ways to change the font, color, and thickness of your clock. Here’s a very quick guide on how to change things.
