See a weather widget on your lock screen
Instantly see whether it’s rain or shine when you unlock your iphone after using Do Not Disturb
Cast your mind back to WWDC 2018, when Apple showcased a phone with a handy weather widget on the lock screen. When you get your iphone out of the box or install IOS 12 on to it, however, this widget is nowhere to be seen. That’s because it is hidden within the device’s settings – you need to activate a few options before you can see it.
The function works by setting Do Not Disturb and its accompanying Bedtime mode. When it is turned on, the weather will display on the screen upon wake up. Unfortunately, it’s only fleeting; when you lock and unlock the screen again it will disappear, but it’s a nice way to get instant information about the current outlook and temperature when you wake without having to open the Weather app.
