Lockscreen feedbacks

[lancastor]

The new Lockscreen ist great but:

Missing features:
- a second row for lockscreen widgets

- removing the extra confirmation to select another lockscreen (like on the Apple Watch)

swipe left/right to switch across diffrent lockscreens, like on the Apple Watch (currenty a left swipe opens the camera. You have to longpress to change the lockscreen)

Like you said, we already have things to swipe left and right between on the lock screen. I wouldn't want this.

I'm just waiting for them to enable the full screen album art.

Does it kill Live Photos on the lockscreen? Hold down on mine but just get option to add more screens.

Agreed on adding a second row. And hopefully 3rd party widgets will be added.

I'm curious if Carrot weather and Launcher by Cromulent Labs can also create Live Activities on the homescreen to create somekind of interactive functionality since the widgets on the lock screen still seem quite limited (similar to those on the homescreen). I did notice Carrot did tweet that they will support a widget on the lock screen but I do wonder if these developers also can and will use the Live Activities as well for e.g.:

- minute by minute precipitation (developers of e.g.: Carrot Weather, Hello Weather, Partly Sunny, BeWeather)
- Launcher (e.g. Cromulent Labs)
- calendar (e.g. DayHub by TotemRanks) with live travel time (by car, public transport, walk, bike) to an appointment
- live battery power of connected bluetooth/wifi devices in % (e.g. PowerToYou, Cloud Battery, Battery Status Overview and Charged?)

I am now still using the classic iOS8 widgets in the Notification Center / Today View area where are interactive but the developers that support this are pretty limited nowadays and there is a chance Apple will phase out support for these kind of widgets in general in future iOS versions (possible iOS16 already).

I really miss an option to fix the chosen lock screen. While carrying my iPhone around with my hand on the display, lockscreen unintentionally switches to selection view numerous times a day, which becomes really annoying.

I want to be able to replace or completely remove the flash light and camera buttons on the Lock Screen. You can already do the same from control center or with a swipe ... the only time I activate the flash light on the lock screen is actually by mistake
