iOS 15 Features:
- Dynamic Time Label Updates: Automatically updates the lock screen time label to show the current time down to the seconds.
- Custom Time Formatting: Allows configuration between 24-hour and 12-hour formats depending on user preference.
iOS 16 Features:
- Since iOS 16 features an Always On Display (AOD) that reduces the refresh rate to conserve battery, the update rate for displaying seconds is also affected. Currently, there isn't a straightforward solution to update the seconds regularly on AOD.
- Biometric Unlock Awareness: Adjusts time display based on lock/unlock status, showing seconds when unlocked and hiding them when locked.
- Adaptive Timer: Timer adjustments ensure the lock screen time label updates seamlessly in real-time.
- Enhanced Visual Transitions: Smooth transitions for time updates using cross-dissolve effects to blend changes in the time display elegantly.
- Custom Time Formatting: Allows configuration between 24-hour and 12-hour formats depending on user preference.
This tweak is designed to enhance the visual and functional aspects of the time display on iOS devices, making it more informative and aesthetically pleasing.
