The ULTIMATE iPhone Home Screen from Scratch ft. iPhone 16 Pro 2024

[@wilfromonline]

THIS is the video I've been looking for since getting my new iPhone. I've been driving myself crazy trying to customize it based on what I actually need. Thank you SO much for this. Going to dive into your previous videos as well. Great stuff!

[@ThisIsE]

I am super happy to hear that!

[@harishp9686]

Could you please make a video of your entire widgy widget setup?

[@MichaelMHl5]

The screen on this 16 release is pretty cool. Thanks for your video!!! Now I feel like I know it much better.

[@Ethanxz1969]

Which screen protector do you use for the 16? I’m new to the Apple world 😅

[@kev_brooks76]

I have the 16 and I’m using one from Vionentus. I really like the texture and how it respects the sensitivity. So far, so good

[@LukmanMannir]

Do you guys install your screen protectors yourselves?? My confidence says I’m totally capable lol

[@kev_brooks76]

Of course hahaha I did it really easily and with no bubbles.

[@moncho33]

I wasn't planning on modifying my screens that much, but your video made me change my mind! Thanks!

[@ThisIsE]

That's the purpose of it - to inspire 😉

[@4rc3l14]

How do you add the stacks of apps on the widgy app that is on your main screen?

[@033wrld]

just drag a widget on top of another

[@AlxDCode]

How can i create the mini drowers like you???

[@Claz_Games]

I’m super confused too. I can’t get two drawers to have different contents

[@otrebor1261]

That's made with widgy, an app that i think you have to pay for.

[@ReynoldsUnleashed]

how did you create the mini draw?

[@nirajan7777]

07:25 why my calendar app doesn't show like that ? I am using IOS 18, it only shows the events on the right side. I really want that calendar view !!!

[@ThisIsE]

It’s a default calendar widget

[@andricheli]

I initially thought the camera control button was a complete gimmick and did not think I would ever use it. Much to my surprise, I have found it to be a hugely beneficial addition to the iPhone. I take a lot of picture outdoors and, especially when it's cold and I'm wearing gloves, it makes it so much easier to take quick photos.

[@TheNinjaNasty]

Great video! I love the convenience and aesthetics of Widgy Widget also and used it for about 3 months. I ended up getting rid of it because it would fail, freeze or not work as intended just often enough for it to not be worth it and have gone back to all built in customizations. Have you ever run into to this?

[@fatman9994]

Planned to do something similar as I'm switching from Android to my first iPhone in many years, you mentioned cleaning up a couple things I didn't think of though so I'll use at least the first half of this video as a template lol

[@ThisIsE]

That means my job is done 🎤☺️

[@0gxzaidd]

The only man who helps me to make my iPhone amazing ❤

[@daa5014]

Easily my fav channel the past couple years running! Thanks E! Also why did you stop wearing your Apple Watch?

[@ThisIsE]

I am trying Android watches and rings. I plan on reporting on my observations

[@kami36kr93]

how do I get the original widgets "pages" back that your see at 7:34 over the thumb? The heard icon and note icon.

[@Luke-qv3co]

Is it possible to amend the Insight widget to show precipitation as opposed to temp?

[@Edramon53]

So instead of scrolling whole pages you have multiple small sections that scroll. Is there really much advantage? Obviously it works for you, but doesn’t look very intuitive to me. I really do need to do something with my Home Screen though. Except the first page I have no idea where most icons are…

[@keninen2245]

Are the sounds of the „screaming“ woman by accident in your video 😂? 9:43

[@ThisIsE]

Hahahah it's part of the song. Although we've been editing and monitoring the sound closely, I never heard that as what you describe. Now I cannot unhear it 😂

[@danielwilliam.5891]

I thought it was put intentionally as a joke 😂

[@xandeath75]

I was hoping someone had commented on this 😂

[@ammygill9769]

Wow man you got some hearing skills😂😂

[@Insights8300]

I was just about to say that. It really caught me off guard

[@Okaka0525]

I also just received my iPhone 16Pro and am setting it up! Very helpful! Thanks!

[@ThisIsE]

I happy you found it helpful! Thanks!

[@raimondheijser3527]

Hi, first of all great video an nice setup! very smooth and clean. I was curious how do you create the stack with widgy withe the different apps it is on your screen on the bottom right and around minute 13.48. thanks! like to hear, is a big solution for me

[@sandroo233]

How can i make small widgy? stacks and apps inside

[@pr11mus19]

You can also just swipe on right at lock screen to launch normal camera app on older models

[@NdianabasiAndrewJoshua]

You really know navigation around your device, excellent tips!!!

[@tae6189]

How did you stack large widgets?

[@themeditatinginvestor]

This is an amazing video. Your storytelling ability while teaching and being informative is incredible

[@ThisIsE]

Glad you think so!

[@OffgridBetaFish]

Thanks as always. Got your widget too. Could you kindly link the video that teaches how to do the airplay shortcut

[@ThisIsE]

I appreciate the support! Here's a link to the video in question: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZWzgJyeiaehba8si=oOdMBBEzG1L1prp5

[@sunitpatel8781]

Amazing set up and love your videos. Before purchasing the insight widget, can you change the reminders to calendar events?

[@Anh-L30]

How is your 'widget page' wallpaper on the left not blurred out? When I swiped right it gives a blurred background.

[@MrNikeFresh808]

Wow you learn something new everyday. I came to this video for inspiration on my already customized Home Screen and I never knew you could get rid of the search button on the Home Screen! Mind blown lol

[@jjttlll]

I didn’t know I needed this set up, but I did. Thank you! Bought your widgets.

[@the_ded_zone]

Is that a girl moaning in the audio at 9:42 ?? LOL

[@ThisIsE]

Hahahhaha

[@rw_keepinitreal]

I know this step is in another video, but are we able to make your newest widget transparent to match our wallpaper?

[@SiJo1830]

Great video. Thanks for sharing. Would you be able to provide links for the two apps that you mentioned when you were creating shortcuts to them on your Lock Screen? Camera and lighting, I think? Love the idea of work images being automatically stored separately to personal.

[@deegobooster]

Really interesting concepts! You've given me some food for thought on how I can set up my iPhone

[@ThisIsE]

Glad to hear that. That was the purpose - to inspire

[@alimvelji]

Great video, I appreciate the thought and logic behind your set up and explanation for everything to all level of users. Excellent content!

[@ThisIsE]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@spaceape5697]

For your mini drawer widget I'm having a problem finding several of the apps I want to use under "taps" to open that specific app. My app is not listed under "external action" Any help?

[@edgarcruz2891]

beautiful video sir, keep it up. just wondering what the name of the case you are using in this video, I look at the link you provided but it doesn't look identical....

[@techinhonest]

You are making vidoes that feels different hits different and are very different from others. Keep it up bro. Great work. Like your work

[@ThisIsE]

I appreciate that! ☺️

[@callumv8427]

Hahaha what are you listening to at 9:40

[@Mike-pl9pm]

i came to te comments for this lo hahaha

[@Ryan_Chisholm]

Navy Symmetry when? (navy blue would look awesome!)

[@virtualseIf]

where can I get that clock at 1:28 ??

[@Jadelover123]

Would love to see how you set up your Pixel Pro Fold in a similar fashion to this kind of video!

[@adelgado1975]

How do you get the calendar layer to curve?

[@xrosnero]

do you have explanation how the toggle button works?

[@ThisIsE]

Check out my newsletter

[@xrosnero]

@@ThisIsE do you have a link? i think i cant seem to find the one with the toggle?

[@khaosuser]

Is there any way to change the reminders section to another app (like Things 3)?

[@FailedMystic]

How did you make the widget background independent?

[@TheTodorKolev]

Благодаря за видеото 👍 Въпрос - може ли да се премахне ‘облачето’ в долния край на екрана ? (Където са иконите телефон и съобщения)

[@Carltonj907]

Love the painbrush wallpaper pack! In love with it. Thank you E for being a great inspirational content creator.

[@ayokikando]

I’d like to setup my device brand new, coming from an iPhone 13 Pro Max. Can I still have all my photos and contacts moved to the new device while still setting up everything from scratch? Great video!

[@dio4254]

This guy seems chill af

[@olivoliv-2308]

Hey there !! Thank you for the video. I was just wondering how did you manage to create a curved calendar on widget and also how to create the today and upcoming button. Is it part of the paid content from Widgy ? Thank you again for your videos.

[@michelleh307]

Great tips again, I was waiting for this video to drop. Purchased both.

[@ThisIsE]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@pwicketts]

I prefer to setup as new as well, but how do you not lose your contacts??

[@aayushkc3008]

is it normal in iphones for itself to drain battery?? My model is the 16 pro.

[@anzarmohamed7]

What a world!!! Our default apps for photos Is Google photos, our default music app is KZbin music, our default storage server is Google drive, our default calendar app Is Google calendar and the list goes on… but still we use iPhone….

[@ThisIsE]

I use a pixel as well 😊

[@heypat7781]

That‘s like saying i should use a chromebook because i use chrome on my windows laptop

[@michele.cancelli]

Wrong! My default app for photos is Photos, my default music app is Spotify/Apple Music, my default storage server is iCloud, and my default calendar app is guess? Calendar! Everything apple, and I own an iPhone 13, a m2 MacBook Air, an iPad and AirPods Pro!!!! P.S. forgot to add that I use Safari as my main browser and opera on my windows pc!

[@Recon_overland]

How do you setup that touch sensor on the right side of the phone you used for the camera controls? Love your channel!

[@aveardofficial]

Why can‘t I see the App Images that you are seeing? I want to Switch Apple Music to Spotify but there are no Pictures

[@caparalph]

I have just bought the Insight Widget. I have an issue where the widget flickers everytime I move both from Today and Upcoming buttons and vice versa. Can this be fixed?

[@ThisIsE]

This is a Widgy issue which should be resolved with an update. Currently, it goes away once you don't constantly switch between the screens.

[@caparalph]

@@ThisIsE yeah I noticed that too. Thanks E!!

[@Amritbhangal]

I love this but can’t find this insight widget

[@ethyn2912]

Gotta pay 11 dollars for its he’s linked it but 11 bucks for a widget is stupid

[@ALPER-k5l]

I recently purchased the SmartWave Large Widgy Widget, but unfortunately, it’s not working properly on my iPhone. It's slow to respond to actions, and the weather part is particularly unresponsive. I'm really disappointed. Hope you can fix this!

[@allesschaffer]

I like the Insight Widget! I just downloaded it and already love it. Maybe you can help me with a little problem: My installed widget doesnt show any text at the reminders section. I already checked, that widgy can use reminders in the setting. Any ideas? Thanks Max!

[@ThisIsE]

I appreciate the support! It will be best to shoot me a message via my website as it's very hard to troubleshoot here: www.thisise.tech/contact

[@Amritbhangal]

How did you download it ? Please I am looking for it

[@aiham_awd]

Why not have the settings app in the control center, it’s way more convenient this way 9:43

[@ThisIsE]

You know what? You are absolutely correct! I appreciate the tip!

[@aiham_awd]

@@ThisIsE Glad to see you find it useful!

[@neilbarry6041]

How do you put the setting app in control centre?

[@aiham_awd]

@@neilbarry6041 there are two methods, one method is to choose from the control center the open app but this will give you the app icon which is kinda ugly in the control center but you can make a shortcut manually that open the app and then choose a gear icon for the shortcut which would fit the control center icon style

[@joecapone9211]

Which case are you using bro? Looks so nice

[@AdamHansen95]

I set up my action button as an orientation lock just like how you could set it up on the iPad back in the day. I never take my phone off silent and never really used the switch when I had any previous phone

[@plasticinetv]

Good idea

How to create that widgy stack?????

[@ThisIsE]

Try doing it on an empty screen. It's easier to try and place them on top of each other.

[@davdavdavy]

Yes! How do you create the initial first stack that houses all the apps?

[@ArtIsLifeninty]

I’m weird and dislike the double load of shortcuts opening.

[@SEANinATL]

What USB C cables are those?

[@ThisIsE]

Those are by the same company. Part of the same lineup of accessories

[@MarvPido]

Excellent content here, E. I love this types of contents because like you, I'm a little OCD when it comes to my phone setup. You inspired me on new placements of my icons, widgets and folders. Love your channel.

[@MarvPido]

The only thing I don't like about the widget screen is when using the smaller widgets up top and medium widgets below, they don't line up. The smaller widgets up top protrude past the edge of the medium widgets and I don't like that so I made them mediums as well. My opinion. I'm trying to follow your setup as best I can. 😊

[@ThisIsE]

This is bizarre indeed. I hope they fix it! I appreciate the support and kind words!
