A new way to unlock iPad, it is reported that Apple iPadOS 17 will support lock screen customization functions similar to iOS 16.

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizens Wu Yanzu in South China for the delivery of clues! CTOnews.com, April 27 (Xinhua)-- Apple will unveil the iPadOS 17 system at the WWDC23 conference in June this year. The latest news is that the system will bring more lock screen customization features to iPad users. These features were already available to iPhone users in the iOS 16 system released last September, but iPad users have not been able to enjoy them.

According to Twitter user @ analyst941, iPadOS 17 will include the following lock screen customization options:

Lock screen widget

Default wallpaper template

Color adjustment, filter and photo style

Wallpaper depth effect

Clock style customization

Wallpaper based on focus mode

Wallpaper library

There are also reports that iOS 17 will bring new lock screen font size options to iPhone, as well as a button to share custom lock screen designs with other iPhone users. According to @ analyst941, iPadOS 17 will also have a new "optimized" lock screen customization feature for iOS 17, which may be referring to these features.

CTOnews.com noted that @ analyst941 had previously accurately predicted the smart island function of iPhone 14 Pro, so its revelations had some credibility. However, he also said that the iPhone 15 Pro would use new solid-state buttons, and later said that the feature would be postponed to next year's Pro model.

Whether iPadOS 17 will really bring these lock screen customization features, we still have to wait for the WWDC23 conference to find out. According to previous news, the system may abandon support for the first-generation 9.7in and 12.9in iPad Pro and the fifth-generation iPad.
