Personalize your Lock Screen
Your photo. Your font. Your widgets. iOS 16 gives you powerful Lock Screen customization so your iPhone looks and works the way you want. Layer a photo for dramatic depth, track Activity rings at a glance, and receive live updates from your favorite apps.

Emergency text via satellite
Stay connected even without cellular or Wi‑Fi. iPhone lets you send emergency texts over satellite so you can reach help when you’re off the grid.

How satellite emergency messaging works
Communicating by satellite is a different challenge—satellites move and bandwidth is limited, so messages can take minutes. iPhone speeds things up by asking a few quick questions to assess your situation and showing where to point your phone to connect. Once linked, it automatically sends your responses, location, Medical ID (if set up), and battery level to a dispatcher to accelerate assistance.

Share location from remote places
Heading into areas without cell service? Use Find My to share your location via satellite so friends and family can track your whereabouts and follow your adventure safely.

Automatic crash detection
Crash Detection on iPhone 14 can recognize a severe car crash and automatically call emergency services and notify your emergency contacts when you can’t.

More screen. More immersion.
The iPhone 14 Plus features a larger Super Retina XDR display, offering 21% more screen area for videos, games, and browsing—so content feels bigger and more immersive.

Stunning photos in any light
Upgrade your photography with a new Main camera and advanced image processing that capture richer color and finer detail, especially in low light. The larger sensor and wider aperture let in 49% more light. The Photonic Engine combines the best pixels from multiple exposures earlier in the process to preserve more image data for brighter, truer colors and textures. Use the Ultra Wide lens for expansive perspectives, rely on Night mode for very dark scenes, and let Smart HDR 4 optimize contrast, lighting, and skin tones for up to four people. Portrait mode artfully blurs background and foreground for professional-looking results. For even higher resolution, iPhone 14 Pro offers a 48MP Main camera and a Telephoto lens for detailed close-ups.

Smooth handheld video with Action mode
Capture steady footage while hiking or chasing after the kids—Action mode stabilizes handheld video for noticeably smoother results.

Cinematic videos in 4K
Make home movies that feel cinematic: Cinematic mode shifts focus automatically to the most important subject and now records in 4K at 24 fps for a film-like look.

Sharper, brighter selfies
Take your best selfies with the upgraded TrueDepth front camera that adds autofocus and a larger aperture. It focuses on multiple subjects for crisp group shots and gathers 38% more light for improved detail and lower noise in photos and videos.

Powerful performance with A15 Bionic
A15 Bionic with a 5‑core GPU delivers fast, sustained performance—the same chip used in iPhone 13 Pro—powering demanding games, AR apps, and advanced camera features. Improved internal design also enhances thermal efficiency so you can stay in the action longer.

eSIM for simpler, safer connections
eSIM simplifies activation and makes adding carriers digital—no physical SIM tray required. And because it can’t be removed like a physical card, eSIM helps protect your service if your iPhone is lost or stolen.
