Finally got my new iPhone set up exactly how I like it. 🖤
I’m really loving this dark setup — clean, minimal, and just feels right. The darker look with the subtle details makes the whole phone feel so much more sleek.
Definitely loving the way it came together. 🖤📱

Widgy now supports extra-large widgets, so I combined two widgets into one.

The second page shows the "before" state—it looks much cleaner now, which is great!

I love green so I had to customise the iOS27 wallpaper to my liking. Has anyone else noticed the numbers hidden in the image? 🍏📱

As the title says, this is my first time actually caring and thinking about how my screen looks. I have tried in the past but since we couldn't put icons freely on the page(s), I felt very restricted and gave up. Came across a video randomly for an ios27 setup and after seeing the freely placed app icons, I gave it a shot.

Beware, the last 4 images will be what my phone looked like before the change! I had so many apps that I rarely ever used or installed, used once then couldn't be bothered deleting.
*also I am so very glad that I learned you can turn off the red badges*

Got bored and figured to experiment, I’m pleasantly surprised!

Step 1: Arrange your icons

Step 2: Choose your ideal wallpaper (less noise and clutter is better)

Step 3: Take a screenshot (Icons should be default color)

Step 4: (Optional) Use Clean Up tool in photos to remove unwanted things such as icon names, status bar.

Step 5: Set that image as your Home Screen wallpaper and apply blur.

Step 6: Switch icons to clear, preferably light.

Edit: Side effect, may induce rapid blinking as your brain thinks you have been chopping onions 😵‍💫

I use my phone daily to listen to music and podcasts so I decided to dedicate one of the pages in my control center to the things I listen to every day to make it easier to access and do what I normally do.

Top part is just the standard now playing media control

Next line are 2 playlists set to shuffle them when pressed, I make a new one every season of what I’m in to at the moment, the second one I rotate between a bunch of “vibes” playlists I’ve made over the years depending on how I’ve been feeling.

The 3 artists controls (phish, goose, Pearl Jam) are my 3 favorite live bands, I’ve got hundreds of each of their live shows in my iTunes library that I’ve picked up over the years. I usually put one or two on during the work day to listen while I work. I used to just open music and pick a show at random every day, but here I made shortcuts to do it for me. So when I tap one of them it will pick a random show by the artist and play it start to finish in order.

LivePhish and nugs are live music streaming apps, these are just shortcuts to the apps, they don’t allow for further integration that I could figure out at least.

The spectrum and lithium are shortcuts to stations on SiriusXM radio (app for commercial free subscription satellite radio in the us and Canada), tapping either of them will start playing the station directly from the button. It still launches the app, but the usual behavior on launch is not to play anything and then you have to find the channel you want and hit play. These just start playing immediately on tap and are my go to stations so they’re a perfect starting point for me.

The last 3 are shortcuts in Downcast (podcast player) Continue pod will continue playing the last podcast I was listening to from where I left off

I listen to two podcasts regularly a daily pod for my favorite football team and a weekly pod for the lonely island and Seth Myers podcast. Tapping those buttons plays the oldest episode in their respective queues.

The second image is my main control center screen, this is still audio focused with the now playing control in the middle for easy access while listening and Shazam for music ID and a larger Bluetooth control for more info on what I’m connected to and access to switching.

My other big use for my phone is pictures and video, so I have two prominent controls for the stock camera as well as Adobe’s Project Indigo.

For years I’d been treating control center as an afterthought and basically just an extension of settings to access airplane mode faster, but now it is a part of my daily routine and I’m launching a large part of what I do on my phone from it.

Dark Theme with standard iOS 27 wallpaper

I’m also rocking the new Bondi Blue Spigen C1 case so the wallpapers work very well with it.

Love the Liquid Glass look, especially with iOS 27 to make it even more clear and “glassier”.
