Lock Screen

Is there a way to add my name to my lock screen, just in case I lose it, and when it’s found cannot be unlocked

rhomade ~ As to the first part of your question, the following custom shortcut will create a JPEG from the contact text you've defined in the shortcut. Tap this iCloud link to add the shortcut to your library:


Create Lock Screen


• Tapping that link should show a blue +Add Shortcut button at the bottom.

• Tap it and the Create Lock Screen icon will appear in the Shortcuts app.

• Tap the circle containing three dots and edit the 🟨 Text action.

• Tap Done at upper right.

• Tap the middle of the icon to create & put your Lock Screen image in Photos > Recents album.

• Then use that image to Personalize your iPhone Lock Screen
