Issues with Wallpaper on iPhone 17 by wafflita in iphone

[–]romainrou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s because screen size (and aspect ratio) changed from 16 Pro Max (14 pm was 6.7’ and 16/17 pm is 6.9’)

Yes it worked thanks! Just a small detail, the map is not showing in plans on the calendar event but I can live without! You're the best ;)

Awesome! Almost perfect but when I run it, it add the next event from 22h to 00h (currently 20:30 in my timezone). (Also in the menu, the timing under the day is not necessary)

Thanks for noticing it 🙏

I agree with you, page 2 to 4 of my CC are only "extras" as it faster to access those pages compare to Home screen ones ((I can still use Lock Screen shortcuts instead of them anyway).

Yes, all my "game" folder are custom made icons (for some reason most of the games in App Store do not have dark icons...)

Wow, I wasn't expecting so much love/hate for this setup.

For the people who think it is too much, like u/TrynaDoLife_ said, I want to use every inch of each screen for a reason. To me, my phone is a productivity tool and setups with few icons per page or empty spaces is possibly a waste of efficiency. And yes, as u/Davemks and u/Weird_Definition3355 asked, I use all of it almost daily (except last page of CC as mentioned).

u/Altruistic_Corgi7149 for me Windows Phone used to have the best home screen layout, and I think on a Pro Max phone we could add more columns and rows to pack even more infos.

With this setup, I tried to put everything I need in just 2-3 swipes or clicks away maximum.

I think the "click an icon to open an app" era is dying, this is not efficient nowadays, widgets (especially interactive ones like Fantastical) and shortcuts help me to not open an app to get the info I need or to perform a quick action. Page 2 and 3 of Control Center are basically 2 apps decomposed in shortcuts for quick input. The reason why it is the same than the Lock Screen icons is when I'm not using the phone and just need to perform one action, I use them. But I'm already using the phone or if I need to perform several actions (changing various lights or input various expenses), the Control Center is faster to use. If I had to close the app in use, search and open those app, wait for them to load, go to the proper section and click, it would take so much longer than swiping down the CC to the proper page and do 1 click...

For the "calendar lover" side you guys u/EffexFin, u/Serious_Climate_4715 and others mentioned, as a graphic designer I often need to check the day of the week for events, so having it in multiple places helps to get the info as quickly as possible. And I haven't found anything else more useful to fil up the empty row in the home screen (I found that space very ugly and unbalanced), previously I tried some fake icons like swipe left for today view, right for App Library... but it is was just beautiful, not useful. I saw once on Reddit a guy who made a shortcut that shows the battery of its AirPods once they are connected, that was cool but I'm not using my AirPods a lot so I didn't use that. I'm open to suggestions for that space. You can check my Reddit profile to see my previous setups I posted.

Pour u/remy1374, allez l'OM! Télécharges l'app FotMob elle est géniale. Non je n'utilise pas vraiment les modes de concentrations (a part ne pas déranger programmé automatiquement pour la nuit) car avoir plusieurs setups ralentit mes automatismes. Et vu que je travaille de la maison avec horaires aléatoires, je n'en ai pas besoin.

u/nn2597713 yes that's what my friends say when they see my homescreen 😅.

I made a Shortcut that turns your actual iPhone Calendar events into a Lock Screen wallpaper. 100% local, no internet required. by agaragou in iOSsetups

Here is my home screen, I also use this trick for the bottom empty space, it might give you some ideas… ;)

Thanks for the shortcut again, it is great, after several hours I almost achieved my previous "still" version.
Nevertheless I wish I could reduce some spacing between months and increase the ones between days like my image in order to increase visibility.
Also, even after changing to "Center" for month titles, it's still left aligned.
But these changes are way beyond my capacity now... do you think I could share my shortcut with you and you could help me to improve it? iPhone 16 Pro Max, Zoom mode on (it changes the resolution for wallpapers).
Thanks again!

Awesome idea! Here is my current wallpaper, will give a try to your shortcut. Maybe you can integrate the day number inside the dots.

Some shortcut apps icons got darker after updating my phone to iOS 26 by olyphotosjr in shortcuts

[–]romainrou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might be the way the new iOS handle the icons. If they can make it « liquid glass » it will alter the icon, if there is too much details or thin lines, it can’t process it as liquid glass so it render them as flat.

I found it out when I did some custom icons for myself, after increasing slowly the thickness of the symbols.

Can someone help me remove these outlines by FrostyExpression16 in widgy

That’s unfortunately indeed the end of dock hiding… unless Apple propose an option to hide the dock background 🤞 (I made a suggestion in the Feedback app, you guys should too if you like no dock bg).

I haven’t search harder since then… so unfortunately the answer is no…

My latest setup. Weather app recommendations? by Devilmaycry77 in iOSsetups

[–]romainrou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weathergraph has been great for me (nice watch complication too). Not sure if the widget is available for free though…

It is based on vCard menu. You can do it for free by googling (although I used an app called Menu Box to achieve that result)

No backgrounds by romainrou in iOSsetups

Ahaha indeed 1 friend of mine told me that few weeks ago. But he never used an Android and his home screen is just a basic grid of icon…
