Apple introduced Focus mode with iOS 15 and macOS Monterey last year, and this year, iOS 16 will offer us more customizable Focus features.
As reported in our iOS 16 Lock Screen article, Apple will offer significant customization options for the Lock screen, including choices of widgets, photos, fonts, colors, and styles. Focus mode will also offer this expanded control and include the option to customize your Lock screen for each Focus mode. You can have a different photo and style on your Lock and Home screens for each Focus, along with the current options to choose which Notifications, apps, and events are shown in each mode.
To further minimize distractions, Apple is introducing new Focus filters. Users can customize Safari content for each Focus mode, so you'll only see tabs that relate to your current focus. Finally, Apple is rolling out a new Focus Application Programming Interface, API, that can work with third-party apps to help them seamlessly work with Focus features.
