After doing the software update (iOS 16.1.1) the clock in my Lock Screen is in VERY BOLD BIG NUMBERS. The day, and date has not changed but the time is in a ridiculously big font. I have googled everything and nothing has worked. Is there a way I can change this?
iPhone 13, iOS 16

It’s better but it’s still larger and thicker than what it used to be. I have two phones (one personal and one work). The work phone is updated and the personal one is not (as I refuse to upgrade until they fix this issue) and you can see the difference between the two. At the very least Apple should give people the option to remove the clock from the Lock Screen all together if we can’t make it less ostentatious.
OH nice, I had read this page before on the site but didn't pay attention to the fact that you have to go into it like you are changing the wallpaper. This worked. Thank you.
Found this, you can only do it if you use their default screens if you use your own wallpaper it won’t work.

Edit Lock Screen didn’t work
I followed your instructions and it does nothing. The Time is still in HUGE numbers. Surely this isn't a new feature! Does Apple think we have all gone blind? LOL
Soooooo annoying and totally unacceptable that I can't change the display on MY products.
apple want to play god and not give customers choices , perhaps it might be worth seeking another manufacturer that listens
I hope there will soon be a way for ordinary users to make the numerals in the time smaller and more tasteful. This is overkill.
Do I have to change my wallpaper I order to get rid of the ugly numbers?
No, just follow the steps 1-5 above, you can leave you wallpaper as is.
Time appears HUGE in lock screen after software update, how do I get it back the previous way
Yes, I was very disappointed to see the new ugly flat time representation on the Lock Screen in version 16… the previous elegant font in 15… gone! Perhaps we could be given the choice in the next update.
