With the iPhone 16 and 16 Pro now available, you can take advantage of the new Camera Control button. This allows you to replace the camera icon on your Lock Screen with a different control. Here’s how to customize it:
Steps to Change the Lock Screen Camera Button
- Enter Editing Mode: Long-press on your Lock Screen.
- Customize: Tap the ‘Customize’ button.
- Select Camera Button: Tap the camera button in the lower-right corner.
- Choose a New Control: Pick a control from the options available.
Options for Customization
You can replace the camera button with various controls, such as:
- Launching a shortcut or app
- Toggling silent mode
- Opening the calculator
- Pinging your Apple Watch
- Accessing the Apple TV Remote
You can customize controls for different wallpaper pairs and tie them to Focus modes if desired. However, if you just want a quick change, replacing the camera button is a great start.
All iPhones running iOS 18 can customize Lock Screen controls, so no need to upgrade to the iPhone 16 for this feature.
