How to add a widget to your iPhone's lock screen in iOS 16

For the first time, Apple is letting iPhone users put widgets on their lock screen. With iOS 16, you no longer have to unlock your iPhone to see quick information like the weather, fitness rings, calendar events, and more.

Apple ships several of its own widgets in iOS 16 to get you started, but third-party apps can also display their own so long as the developer has added support for them. Since iOS 16 is still in beta as of this writing, it may take a few weeks or months for third-party apps to gain lock screen widgets.
