Download iOS 16 Now Available With New Lock Screen, Editable iMessages, and More. Apple has released its latest iOS 16 operating system for compatible iPhones today (.
The free update includes a new lock screen with widgets, unsend, and edit for iMessage, new keyboard haptics, a new Home app, and much more. iPadOS won’t be updated to version 16 today, though, as that will ship later as an iPadOS 16.1 release.
The lock screen is where most of the obvious improvements in iOS 16 can be seen. You can now add widgets to the lock screen, and they can act like a way of presenting notifications. On iPhone 14 Pro models, these widgets will even appear when the device is off thanks to a new always-on display.
