Apple has just released the new version of iOS, the company’s operating system for the iPhone. iOS 16 is a free download and it works with the iPhone 8 or later, the second-generation and third-generation iPhone SE.

The main change in iOS 16 is a brand new lock screen. You can customize how it looks and feels in several ways. When you pick a photo in your photo library, you can now enable a depth effect to make a face stand out from the background. In case photos aren’t your thing, there is now an included wallpaper generator that lets you create color gradients and emoji grids. You can also choose to use dynamic weather-based or astronomy-based wallpapers.
