Personalize your Lock Screen
iOS 16 gives you complete control over your Lock Screen — use your photo, choose a font, and add widgets to show what matters most. Layer images for striking effects, keep an eye on your Activity rings, and see live updates from your favorite apps.

Emergency texts via satellite
When you’re outside cellular or Wi‑Fi coverage, iPhone lets you text emergency services over satellite so you can reach help when it matters most.

How satellite messaging works
Satellite connections have limited bandwidth and require precision. To speed help, iPhone asks a few simple questions up front so you can quickly describe your situation, then guides you to point the phone toward a satellite. Once connected, your answers, location, Medical ID (if set), and battery level are sent automatically to a dispatcher.

Share your location from remote places
If you’re off the grid, use Find My to share your location via satellite so friends and family know where you are during outdoor adventures.

Automatic Crash Detection
iPhone 14 can detect a severe car crash and automatically call emergency services and notify your emergency contacts — providing critical help when you may not be able to ask for it yourself.

Big, immersive 6.7" display
The iPhone 14 Plus features a supersized Super Retina XDR display that gives you 21% more screen area for movies, games, and browsing — a bolder, more engaging view of everything you do.

Advanced cameras for stunning photos
Capture more detail and richer color with a redesigned Main camera and improved image processing. A larger sensor and wider aperture let in 49% more light. The Photonic Engine merges the best pixels early in the process to preserve more image data, producing brighter, truer colors and finer textures in low light. Use the Ultra Wide lens for wider perspectives. Night mode brightens very dark scenes, and Smart HDR 4 optimizes contrast, lighting, and skin tone for up to four people. Portrait mode artfully blurs background and foreground to emphasize your subject. For even higher detail, iPhone 14 Pro offers a 48MP Main camera and a Telephoto lens.

Smooth handheld video with Action mode
Action mode stabilizes footage when you’re moving — whether hiking a trail or chasing kids in the park — delivering noticeably smoother handheld videos.

Cinematic-quality video in 4K
Cinematic mode shifts focus automatically to the most important subject, just like a filmmaker. Now you can record in 4K at 24 fps for a true cinematic look in your home movies.

Sharper, brighter selfies
The TrueDepth front camera now features autofocus and a larger aperture for sharper close-ups and better group shots. It focuses on multiple subjects and captures 38% better light‑gathering performance for clearer, more detailed photos and videos in low light.

A15 Bionic: performance that lasts
Powered by the A15 Bionic with a 5‑core GPU (the same chip used in iPhone 13 Pro), iPhone 14 delivers fast performance for demanding games, AR apps, and multitasking. An improved internal design enhances thermal efficiency so you can stay in the action longer.

eSIM for simple, secure connectivity
eSIM simplifies activation and lets you add carriers digitally so you can start calling and texting quickly. Because it’s virtual, eSIM can’t be removed like a physical SIM card if your iPhone is lost or stolen.
