@… sehr guter Tipp vielen Dank. Ich habe jetzt mein myHyundai Widget auf dem iPhone auf die »Heute Ansicht« platziert. Mal sehen ob ich mich daran gewöhne. https:/…

I wanted to change the background on an iPhone to match a new cover, and for the life of me I can’t figure out how to pick one of the built-in options without having to set up all widgets all over again. Apple explicitly hints that I should hold down on the locked screen, but that only seems to let me access everything BUT the background.
If Apple can do FaceID on the iPhone and TouchID on a Magic Keyboard attached to a Mac, why can’t they do FaceID with a Studio Display camera attached to a Mac?
It’s a mystery…

I regularly drag my feet on some upgrades, but this is getting a bit ridiculous. I'm using an iPhone 13 Mini because my tiny hands can't hold the giant phablets. And iOS 18.7.2, because I hate the AI junk crammed into everything and don't want nauseating translucent UI effects. But there's a lot of security bugs lately that might demand something to change. Uggghh.
I wish portable pocket computers were less capable and had more battery life.
